We headed to West Lake Vietnamese Restaurant in Richmond for this week’s edition of Dot Com Pho. West Lake is located in an extremely busy shopping plaza on Number 3 Road and finding parking can be a chore, especially on a Saturday. However, we lucked out and found an empty space pretty quick. West Lake is way more Chinese than it is Vietnamese but we knew that going in based on the name. It was a nice spot to hold a Pho meet up.
For this edition of Dot Com Pho, we have things that make you go hmmm, Wolf’s new gadget, lemon grass chicken wings, the gadget of the week and the biggest Twitter shout out to date. Next week, we may have to limit the number of shout outs.
Dot Com Pho was filmed using a Flip digital camcorder and edited with Apple iMovie on a Macbook Air. To find out where the next Dot Com Pho will be held, follow me on Twitter.

One of the most common complaint (or excuse) I hear from potential new bloggers is they don’t know how to install WordPress. Terms like FTP and CPanel are like a foreign language and setting up a database might as well be setting up the space shuttle for a launch. Because of the technology barrier, many would-be bloggers never start their blogs...

Introducing kids to gadgets early is a good idea. My dad did that to me and now i’m not as computer illiterate as my friends :p

Wow @ the invisible shield – that would have soooo many great uses!
Where were Ed, Stephen, and iPhone Gary? Ray?
Stephen was learning how to do a clean and jerk, Gary was getting ready to get nailed, Ed was sleeping and Ray was working on getting a last name.
The food looks great. The invisible shield is sweet too.
I certainly want one too

FUN Fact – Sally is Not the worlds youngest blogger, that goes to IsabelleJohnson.com Got you again John.
Sally’s blog is over two years old and the first post was made on the day she was born!
I don’t see any “Sally” in your blog roll John Chow. Can you post the domain name?
Her URL is in the video.
Thanks! I loved it!
i need to get on these shoutouts
Lol yeah..
Looked awesome!
Could it be that the post I guest posted here gave viewers more urge to participate in the Twitter Shoutout?
-Mike
I think it’s more because the shout out tweet came from my Twitter instead of of Ed’s.
Lol, maybe
BTW, did you happen to receive my other guest post about Twitter? I want to make sure.
-Mike
Yep but I won’t be using it.
How come?
I think it’s a well thought out opinion of how Twitter really is.
