Waiting for This Hawaii Five-O Storyline and Guest
I admit that Hawaii Five-0 is doing a decent job mixing up plots, story lines, and nuances. In this week’s episode, tech-savvy Asian (is that redundant?) Chin Ho Kelly jury rigs a damaged car GPS to extract the dead driver’s destination. I’m waiting for the episode when the stumped Five-0 crew use Foursquare, Gowalla, and Yelp to track a victim’s recent whereabouts.
The episode would include stuff like this… A social media maven’s gone missing but his IRL friend knows Chin from small kid time. He tells Chin about the disappearance, and as a favor, Chin starts to investigate (and brings the other Five-Ohers). Through Foursquare mayorships, Gowalla check-ins, and Yelp reviews, the team is able to piece together the victim’s patterns to focus their search. But, you and I know that none of the Five-0 crew use any of these geolocation services, so they’d need to enlist some help. Enter Ryan Ozawa, aka @hawaii. As an omnipresent online entity, Ryan is, of course, “friends” with the victim and has access to his online profiles. Think of Ryan playing a specialist role akin to Masi Oka (Dr. Max Bergman), and he would be an old classmate of Chin at Kukui High.
I’d dig that episode! And is there any doubt that there would be a tweetup to watch its airing?

Oh my! I’d much rather play an unrecognizable dead body! But thanks for the huge vote of… geekiness!

That would be a cool episode! Then I could brag that I actually met the omnipresent online entity, @hawaii IRL.
