This Week in Philadelphia (TWIP) for 2-28

We changed the Basecamp Business Calendar this week so that it can support events that are being co-hosted by several different organizations, so the format of This Week in Philadelphia is changing a bit.

I've also included a meeting in New York City --  GoodCompany Ventures Launch in NYC -- because they started local I thought their jump to NYC was worth noting.
