Hi Wallyhood! I am a faithful reader, and as such, understand the impact you have in getting the word out about good causes in Wallingford and nearby, so I’m hoping maybe you can help me.

You may remember the spot the house stands on: right across from Mosaic Coffeehouse, between 1st and 2nd Ave NE, we covered back in early 2009 when they knocked down the tiny old house that stood on the property previously. We can’t find a link to our post from the time, but Google Maps remembers what it looks like, and if you want a piece of it, just head down to Second Use, the building salvage company. Their crew spent a day taking everything out of the old house they …

In addition to our wild party life as a hyperlocal blogger celebrity, we hold down a day job running an Internet start-up that provides social networking services for conferences and events. Between all that, our background in social psychology and our general love of all things on-line, we’ve learned a few things about “social media”, the catch-all term that has come to describe the relationships and content being built around Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, blogs and the like.
We’ll be sharing a few of those things at tomorrow’s Wallingford Chamber of Commerce meeting, giving a short talk on how small businesses …
We noted back in March that a new auto repair shop was opening where Walt’s used to be on 45th St, across from the Taco Time. We’re getting a few reviews, so we thought we’d share. Amy writes:
Green Care Auto Repair (http://greencareautorepair.com) has opened in the old Walt’s location on 45th Street. I took my car in last week and had a positive experience there. The owner, Alex, was friendly and helpful. He said the shop opened Monday, April 5. Prior to that, they spent a month and a half cleaning up the shop (it was remarkably clean in …
