Three years of waiting

Is there anything you want to get an answer. But there is nothing you can do, except waiting. I have been waiting for something for three years. Last Tuesday, the waiting is over. My 1st ever US patent was granted. It was filed on April 2003.

As a tech guy, I always want to invent something. But honestly I don't have enough talent to innovate anything significant alone. I were fortunate to join an interesting research project. And unexpectedly, the research results had enough commercial value to make it a product. So the company filed a patent for protection. It was a rare opportunity and a nice experience for me.

Another topic, I realize my blog didn't talk about any tech stuff for nearly three months. I talked too much about personal this and that. It is drifting away from my original theme "Tech Life in the Valley". So starting next week I will post more self-study technical topics. I find by writing technical stuff into an easy-to-read style, it helps me to understand it better too. Hopefully someone will find those blogs worth killing time.
