They've got a tough road ahead. The problem though is there are already well established sources of the same kind of information in the Philly market. They’ve got a tough road ahead.

So even if people don't choose to sign up, there's still rich content and data. This is a city site with a social engine. Secondly, I think there are still plenty of opportunities for local social networks built around local things.

The idea is good on the surface but misses the mark and probably won't fare well. Just one more social networking site to join. NBC would have been smarter to "team up" with an existing social network that already has a footprint than try to start their own brand new thing. Alyssa has an excellent point.
