Chuck and I
Yes I’d like to confirm the rumors that Silicon Valley Web Builder (SVWB) is planning a Documentary Film about Browsers and Web 2.0 in Silicon Valley. SVWB is the Media Sponsor for 7th Annual Macworld Final Cut Pro SuperMeet organized by SF Cutters. Who will think a film group needs a web group to get the words out? I shared my dream plan to the film group leaders and professionals over the past few months. Not only no one tease or laugh at me, but these film professionals also encourage me to stay on my dream plan by sending me many supporting emails. After months of research, our production unit has gathered sufficient information as a starting point. The missing part is funding on film equipments. Any help out there?
What Chuck and I have in common? Like Chuck on TV Series, I was the only one board member left with the visual database of people and past history from the last web organization I served on. Like Chuck, I am geek by day and I am geek action figure by night in building and restoring a web group in Silicon Valley from scratch. Like Chuck, we receive good care from organizations like SD Forum and other industry groups. Like Good Luck Chuck, I do occasionally bring good luck charms to things we covered. The latest is OpenSocial. I’ll tell you more later.
The film is to promote peace and freedom within Browsers as an effort to spark innovation and breakthrough technologies. Like the movie “National Treasure”, I think the secrets lie within Browsers. Web is our National Treasure.
I urge all the internet leaders to focus on innovation rather than protecting old technologies. I urge Bill Gates to untie the lock between Operating System and Internet Explorer. Many users using second-handed computers in recycle markets and other countries can’t upgrade their old browsers to latest versions due to the lock. Bill, just free the users!

Apple pie Apple pie. I’ve watched every single episode of Chuck online. It is very cool to show Sarah Walker to use her iPhone, Chuck used image software to find clues and his new iphone in his action. It is so cool to show the geek girls jumped in, kicked butt, and rescued Chuck on the Stanford Episode. Sure geek girls like to kick butts and rescue guy geeks in troubles. I would be thrilled if any cast member will visit us in Silicon Valley and drop in our events on your break times (contact: thewebsig@gmail.com). The latest storyline is around the security issues on social networking and the increasing number of high profile politicians and presidential candidates and their family using these social networking sites without checking how to delete personal sensitive information like buying habits. I also like to point out NBC executives make some smart decisions in using Ruby On Rails on their Hulu.com TV project. Ruby is the “new” diamond.
Note: I decide to chat a bit more especially our officers have been complaining that we didn’t receive much credits and recognition from our latest efforts.
