The Essence Of Blogging

Previously... when I am browsing on the internet, I often faced with the passive site, which it only gave one-way communication. Read and finish, afterwards gone to other site (also read and finish). The only things that could be done was, click "Contact Us" and sent a message to the author.

Then... emerge the messenger's technology, like mIRC, Yahoo Messenger, Windows Messenger, etc. (referred to "chatting"). Indeed this was the two-way communication, but still not enough to keep tons of our thought and idea permanently.

Now... by using the service from Blogspot, Wordpress, TypePad, LiveJournal, Facebook, Twitter, etc. it create a cyberspace with more live and enjoy. Anyone could share their thoughts, idea, story, and interact with each other in manner of two-ways. Moreover there are those who wrote "Welcome to my home" in a blog. I feel like visiting my neighbor although they were very far from me. I thought cyberspace has been get up from the the silence night with the existence of blogosphere and netizen. In this opportunity, I want to share several blog / site which I often visit it, perhaps you also like to visit them, that is:

  1. Wikipedia, here you can search a lot of good information. May be become your inspiration to write an article.
  2. Greenpeace International, for you who cares about environment.
  3. Asia Pacific Solidarity Network, here you can get information around the Asia-Pacific.
  4. Good News From Indonesia, various news about Indonesia that is collectively written by Indonesian writers.
  5. Ramana's Musings, find good musing in this blog. The author have very well thoughts from his experience and you can discuss various matters with him.
  6. Personal Reflections, the owner of this blog have wide experience and his articles was very interesting to be read.

Do not see the origin of the blog above, but see the contents inside. I believe, there are a lot of great blog, in fact the best, but at this moment only that from my limited knowledge. Let me know of another good blog by sharing it in comment. Happy blogging to everyone!

    You always find what you need. A good rule of thumb is if you do not find it, then you do not really need it as much has you thought.

    Hi Tikno - I love the way you describe how cyberspace has evolved, and has been lit up by the blogosphere. Yours is actually the third blog I have read today that has talked about the connectivity of blogging - there must be something going on!

Is Multipolar World Really a Global Democracy

The United States stood alone as the world’s sole superpower after the Soviet Union collapsed, where one dominant player wields the vast majority of military, economic, and cultural influence. We call this circumstance as unipolar world . That is essentially one setting the rules for everyone else. But if you look at the news lately, that single-power dynamic is slowly shifting, especially since the rise of China. We are moving towards a multipolar world - a setting where power and influence are distributed among a few major powers: the US, China, and Russia . Global stage now is like a game of throne. Their intense competition will be reshaping our world to multipolarity. Given these realities, I have a big question that might spark some debate. Is a unipolar world actually a " global authoritarianism "? Is a multipolar world really a " global democracy "? I'm interested in looking at it through the lens of the availability of choice. Some people argue that a ...

Five Pillars of Strong Country.

The strong country I mean is a country that is able to protect and prosper its people, and is able to provide assistance and influence to regional countries politically, economically or militarily. Indeed, a country's territory, natural resources, and population also need to be considered. But in this post, I want to highlight the five main pillars for becoming a strong country, namely: Political maturity and stability. Legal certainty and supremacy. Money / economic power. Mastery of high technology. Strong and self-sufficient military. Pillar no. 1: Political Maturity and Stability. This is the core which will provide the basis for building the next pillars. A country that is busy with political instability, domestic conflicts, riots, rebellions, military coups, will NEVER become a strong country. Their resources, time and minds are drained just because of power struggles. Like walking in place, no steps forward, always starting from zero. Note: consciously or not, a country must...

Agentic Browsing and Copyright Infringement Issues in AI Training

A few days ago, just for fun, I checked this blog's page load speed on Google Page Speed Insights . I was intrigued by a new metric called Agentic Browsing (AI-agent-based browsing). This metric measures how user-friendly a website is for an AI agent to read and navigate. It can even autonomously click, fill out forms, and make purchases on behalf of the user. But Agentic Browsing is still under development and subject to change. In the past, search engines like Google, Bing, or Yandex only presented search results. It took time to open dozens or even hundreds of websites one by one to find the most relevant answers. A hassle, right? In the era of AI-powered personal assistants, AI agents summarize information and directly answer user's questions. They can do this because AI models are trained on vast amounts of data collected from across the web . I prefer to call it secretly scraping/collecting data without the copyright holder's permission. This raises the question: Ar...
