The Heinz Endowments, specifically the Innovation Economy Program, recently commissioned a report on Growing Pennsylvania’s High-Tech Economy. It took me a while to make it through the whole report (I don’t have tons of free time), but I wanted to share some of it and comment on it briefly. I’ll...

You know what makes a great ice pack when you’ve just run 18 miles? Frozen Sauerkraut. Unfortunately, I don’t have any frozen sauerkraut. So this episode of your Sunday Twitter Tweets comes with frozen peas on both knees. As I go through the week, I use twitter to send out little...

I’m in Charlotte, so there isn’t 12 inches of snow on the ground. In fact, I’m getting ready to go for a run. In the cold, but well over freezing morning. However, since I am fairly “plugged in” to the Pittsburgh media I have seen lots of news/blogs/tweets I thought...
