wanna live in a pluralistic democratic world?

wanna live in a pluralistic democratic world?

Book yourself space at a blogworld !!

we had an interesting discussion with mr. Budi Putra at the office today
it's about the blogworld

how it opens new horizon to the humankind
how it finds hidden talents of many in this huge universe

unlike the mainstream media we commonly face now (e.g. the tv/radio/newspaper/magazine)
the blog has many flexibility to carry independency, honesty and indepth thought of the writer.
all the limitations which occationally forbid a piece of writing from being published in a mainstream media, like the space restriction, editorial policy, commercial consideration, are never to be found in the blogworld.

while mr. budi putra, who is also the regular contributor for CNET Asia, eagerly spreading the blogging voice of love, I keep on looking and trying to convince my doubtful friend on how this blog phenomenon could be the only tool which can bare his narcism behaviour :)

And why do I refer the blogworld as probably the most or only pluralistic and democratic world we have? Although I once wrote blogpaganda, based of my suspicion that there are some blogs which are specially designed for the sake of propaganda :). However, some remarks delivered in the discussion provide justification of how pluralist and democratic a blog is:
  • It treats people equally, you will not be seen based on your wealth, gender, age and seniority. 
  • Your thoughts are matters !
  • Web authority/dominance is useless in this "searchable world", it's the freshness that matters :) ( gee, probably that's why now I oftenly open yosef ardi than bisnis Indonesia)
  • You could easily interact with others, no boundaries-no worries.
  • seems that all base on sharing. The thoughts, the knowledge, the feelings are shared. there's less greed and few hypocrisy (see my previous note on blogpaganda hehehe) appears when we browse around blog.
so, if we already succesful of being a pluralist and democratic citizen in a blogworld, then how come we are so damn fucked in the real world :)

don't mind the above statement hehehehe, just move on to the next useful things could be use in blogging.

several tips of blogging I have from budi putra are:
  • use english (I'm trying sir). It will globalize your blogworld
  • Just write anything, with your own word and style. at first, don't burden yourself with topics to be delivered in your blog. it will develop eventually.
  • use tags (in english) on your posting and create general tags on your posts. Several recommended tags provider are del.icio.us , digg and technorati.
More notes on discussion with Budi Putra is published on this site.

Wapres Gue asbun banget dah

tokoh yang paling sering menjengkelkan setelah Bush ya Jusuf Kalla

liat nih komentarnya di Riau Pos:
  • Demokrasi itu nomor dua
  • Investor asing lebih memilih negara yang stabil daripada yang demokratis
  • Bagi pengusaha, demokrasi itu nomor dua. Sebab, kalau demo terus, anggota DPR marah terus. Capek juga pengusaha. (buset.. die itu dalam kapasitas pengusaha ato wapres seeeh)
  • Sebagai negara yang demokratis,negara tidak sepatutnya memberikan subsidi sebesar itu. ’’Kita seperti negara komunis terbesar di dunia. Sebab, hanya negara komunis yang memberikan subsidi sebesar itu,’’ tegasnya.

what is wrong with him?

I think the family has given him quite some time and patient
he just won't embrace it
he's taking us for granted
but then again why should he
he even ignore the Almighty not just recently

probably all the drugs have change him
probabaly all the high time means more to him than the family

another unbelievable moment just whispered to my ears
all the things I barely even think of
with all of that i know will create disaster in the family

oh how do I even try to manage this
for I don't have enough mercy but malignity inside me

dear God, your child is lost
will he find a way back .. i don't think so
will he even try .. i don't care anymore

for nothing but pain he brings inside
for nothing but stain in our heart.

most disturbing and ungrateful client

today will meet a client
who's the most ungrateful client we have ever

never the client shows respect of what we have done
no matter how good our efforts are in implementing the program

This kind of client just sharpen my perception
that you can't never trust a marketing kindda person to do a PR work
you will see that the PR program that you have designed
will later on turn out to be
just another programs in their integrated marketing

it is not a matter of creating good perception or image anymore
nor an effort to create an impactful CSR program for the public

it will be just another branding move
it will be just another type of actions to increase sale

imagine.. what kind of meeting i will have

dampak extravaganza trans tv :)

Laras lumayan doyan nonton extravagana trans tv
walaupun nontonnya cuma sekilas, ternyata banyak
vocab yang lumayan nempel di otaknya

waktu itu, lagi pas nanya sesuatu, jawabannya lumayan shocking
Mom: Mana minum botolnya mbak?
Laras: Mene Ketehe!
Mom: haaa? emang artinya apa tuh?

Laras: Mana ku tahu (sambil nyengir senyum)

eh, beberapa hari yang lalu, pengaruh
extra ini sampe kebawa mimpinya neng Laras. kira2 jam 3 pagi, sang nyokap ga sengaja bangun, terus ngeliatin anaknya. eh, tau2 si neng ngigau singkat yang bikin nyokapnya ketawa geli banget




igauan singkat itu: Capek deh ah (
diucapkan dg aming style)
