Mummers’ Guide to Fun from LindsayT on Vimeo.

The Philadelphia Mummers Parade occurs every New Years Day, and is as much an institution of the city as the Liberty Bell, Rocky, and sports fanatics. It’s also in trouble and could use help! Please visit www.SaveTheMummers.com and plan on coming next year!

For those of you not from Philadelphia, the Mummers Parade can be summed up as a combination of San Francisco’s Bay to Breakers, New Orleans’ Mardi Gras and a good ole’ fashion marching band parade.

Tracks:

Survivor – Eye of the Tiger

A Biblio Social Experiment from Lindsay Tabas on Vimeo.

Philly NetSquared meets monthly to discuss how they can use technology for social change. For the December 2009 meetup, the group ran a “bibilo social experiment” by hosting a Book UNclub, where members bring books they find interesting, and hold impromptu discussions on the books the group found most desirable. Join the group as they mashup an Unconference with a traditional Book Club to discuss non-profits, Philadelphia, and using social media effectively.
