INTRODUCTION to the “valleylist” list of silicon valley companies involved many stops – - San Jose, San Francisco, Menlo Park, Palo Alto, then Sunnyvale, where even the lowly local McDonalds is handing out glossy wi-fi brochures. Why spend a lot of time using the other internet services when it is possible to put together a new list based entirely on companies that I like. Other big news, URL “thevalleylist.com” has arrived and will be propagated like the rest of the all too literate internet addresses on the web. Business Wire suggested inadvertently that I come up with a news service, perhaps neatly edited and refreshed every hour – - my prototype version is ” .news ”
 
Happy birthday George Bush! On a Monday yet!
