Hi Web Surfers, this is my 1st ever blog. First let me give a brief introduction of myself. I live in the Bay Area Silicon Valley, work for an IC design software company. English is my 2nd language so please pardon my poor writing. I will focus my blog on Tech life in the Valley, especially on my industry. There are 2 things quite interesting happening in my industry in 2005.
First, the Design-For-Manufacturing phenomena (so call DFM). There are so many start-up proposing all kind of solution to address this problem, but none is promising. It is like a gold rush. A couple years down the road, it will be interesting to see how many can survive.
Second, the outsourcing. Yeah, not a NEW news. But I'm casting my vote here: outsourcing is a one-way street for tech jobs. Except there is another technology breakthough (e.g. anti-Internet). Outsourcing is just such a logical choice for CEOs. If you have 10 years experience on the right knownledge, you are probably safe for a while. Because most Enginners in China/India don't have that much experience yet (but don't worry, they will catch up). If you are fresh grad or junior, better have backup plan on your career path.

Great start. How did you customize the title header? Is that a part of the template?
Hi James, thanks for visiting. For the title "Tech life in the Valley", I didn't do anything specifically, so I believe it is part of the template. BTW I lived in Seattle for 8 years and I'm a Sonic fans too.
