PW loves City Paper contributors

In addition to crowning Meal Ticket's Felicia D'Ambrosio the brainiest beer drinker in Philly, Philadelphia Weekly gave a shout-out to three of City Paper's contributors in their "Better Than Best" issue: Brian James Kirk, Christopher Wink and Sean Blanda, aka the dudes behind Technically Philly. Sez PW, which named them the "Best Self-Promoters on the New Media Scene" (a euphemism, perhaps, for "Biggest Twitter Sluts"):

The guys—Sean Blanda, Brian James Kirk and Chris Wink—are certainly good at getting their names out there: The trio appeared last spring at BarCamp Philly, a gathering of veteran journalists, to explain the virtues of their approach. And if that approach appears to be a combination of web links, brief stories and occasional interviews that skim the surface of the local scene—well, who’s to say that isn’t the future of media?

Technically Philly, coincidentally, is celebrating its first b-day at 7:30 p.m. tonight, at the University of the Arts (211 S. Broad St., Terra Building, Room 1107). It's free, but you need to RSVP.
