      Activities and Societies: As a major founder of Frontfree Techonolgy Network at 2000, I designed and implemented entire Web site including all the server (ASP) and client (Javascript) code. The site is in AJAX, server side returns XML only, all presentation is done at client side. I also carefully designed the HTTP cache headers (ETag, Last Modified, Age, etc.) to leverage downstream HTTP cache servers to achieve good borwsing performance. Frontfree is the biggest student community in university at that time.
