Dari awal saya mencoba system operasi Apple Tiger 10.4.5, saya langsung jatuh cinta pada interfacenya. Memang, saya mencobanya dengan Tiger bajakan atau Hackintosh. Dapet DVDnya sudah lama, tapi langsung masuk gudang. Dan setelah dapet komputer bagus dikantor baru bisa nyoba, jadi ada jeda sekitar 1 tahun dari mendapatkan DVDnya sampe mencobanya.

Interface dari Apple memang sangat-sangat 'manis'. Dan memang sepertinya didesain untuk kemudahan pemakai. Untuk pemula, saya rasa tidak akan susah beradaptasi dengan Apple. Dan yang membuat saya jatuh cinta lagi adalah, Apple Tiger berbasis Unix. Yaitu darwin. Jadi seharusnya tidak ada masalah juga untuk perpindahan dari OS Linux ke Apple.

Untuk linux, saya sendiri cukup familier, dan sekarang sudah cukup mudah. Bahkan linux sendiri seperti bunglon. Anda mau interface seperti Windows atau Apple, linux bisa. Dari beberapa blog yang saya baca, fasilitas AWN (Avant Window Navigator) membuat Xwindow linux serasa Apple. Seharusnya pengguna linux jauh lebih puas, sebab bisa berkreasi seperti apapun, linux bisa mengakomodasi. Namun, seperti kebanyakan, saya bukan ingin berkreasi, tapi 'menggunakan' :D.

Untuk saat ini, linux yang saya pakai--, Debian Lenny, saya model seperti Apple lawas. Belum ada ide kreatif untuk membuat sesuatu yang lebih.

Sebetulnya, tulisan ini intinya adalah, saya pengen punya Apple/Mac. Kalau bisa MacBook Pro, kalo gak bisa ya MacBook, kalo masih gak bisa ya MacMini.

Eh, ada info tentang blog Dian Sastro. Hm... setelah baca-baca posting di sana, ternyata Dian Sastro beneran ngeblog. Aih gak salah nih?? [...]

Langsung saja ke penilaian,

CERITA : 5 kancut
SUARA : 5 kancut
KAMERA : 2 kancut

Overall : 4 Kancut

Jelas! Film ini tidak layak tonton. Dari cerita sangat-sangat jelek. Entah saya kok jadi agak2 dejavu ke sebuah film luar saat si cowok bilang, "kita ini partner in crime". Dari suara, sangat berdengung dan tidak jelas. Ini entah salah siapa, bioskopnya atau filmnya. Tapi kayaknya emang filmnya, sebab saat ada preview film lain suaranya bagus kok. Dan yang juga mengganggu itu gerakan kamera. Gerakan kamera yang tidak still, terlalu mengganggu, mungkin ingin meniru film Bourne. Dari Cerita, plotnya datar, dan sesaat mau klimaks, eh kendur lagi.

Yang pasti film ini TIDAK LAYAK TONTON. Rugi.

Ternyata debian itu penamaannya berdasarkan cerita Toy Story.

Sid --

Sidney 'Sid' Phillips is a hyperactive, disturbed, thirteen-year-old boy and the main villain of the first film. He was Andy's vicious neighbor (until Andy moved) and the worst nightmare any toy could have. Sid is a young, bratty skate punk with metal braces, whose idea of fun is terrorizing his sister and destroying toys in many ways (exploding, burning or in his "mad doctor" plays). He also likes skateboarding and listening to rock music. He is voiced by Erik von Detten. According to an interview, Sid is named after a former employee at Pixar who would take toys apart and sometimes rebuild them in different, albeit disturbingly odd, ways. At the end of the original movie, when Woody and Sid's toys decide to save Buzz by scaring Sid, he becomes very frightened of toys, considering all the things he had done with them.

Pantes saja dinamain Sid, lha memang belum stabil, hiperaktif (terbaru). Dan versi unstable selalu mempunyai nama sid.

Indonesian are curiously amnesiac. Watching current news in Indonesia proved that interesting fact. There is a certain events happened in the media (television, radio, newspaper and internet) right now. It is about the same topic again and again. Most of the people, related to the topic, talked about goodness, forgiveness and reward. Fair enough, but somehow there were some missing pieces. How about the wickedness, repentance and punishment?

Being Human

As a human being we need to be able to forgive. If you are a religious person then you must believe that God will forgive anybody as long as they repent and in extreme situation, those who repent still need to be punished for their wrongdoing. So we had three main issues here: wickedness done by a human, repentance by that human and punishment for the wickedness done by that human who repent. Those train of thought were established to maintain a good society. It was not meant to hurt that particular human, it was meant to remind people about the great responsibility as a human being.

Being human is difficult. There are things a human should but could not do it. Or could but should not. Most of us picked ‘should but could not’ stance when faced with difficult situation. There are people who got so much power and most of them picked ‘could but should not’ approach to the situation. For example, people should help others but some people choose not to do it because they don’t have the ability or power to help. People with power however, they should not use their power to harm others but most of them choose to do it anyway, just because they could.

With great power comes great responsibility. Comic book lovers knew where the phrase came from. It may be a cliché but it holds the truth. Unfortunately, most people with great power did not understand this. They saw their power as a mean to escalate personal interest. Their power were so great, they even could altered the mind of people they were controlled.

Being Amnesiac

Forgiving is a good act but forgetting is not. Forgiving is an act of clearing our heart and believe people always have their opportunity to do things right, next time. Forgetting is an act of wiping our mind and try not to remember anything, good or bad, about a certain person. By forgetting, we actually gave them another chance to do their best or their worst indefinitely.

Selective forgetting is the worst act and this is what happened here in Indonesia currently. Forget all the bad things, remember all the good things and that’s all. It does not really matter if a person practically, direct or indirect, was destroying many people’s life, practising wicked behavior and economic, manipulating minds of million of people and ruining a whole country with his/her previous action. It does not matter at all. Indonesian could forget all about that and remember only all the good and great things ever did by a person. Wicked deeds did not need to be repented and wicked deeds definitely did not need to be punished. This issue will lead into bad precedence for Indonesia now and in the future.

For some people, what happened to them was the opposite. Their hatred was so deep, they could not see the good things. Their hatred was tragically reasonable enough. They were destroyed, isolated, tormented and mollified physically and psychologically. They lost family members, their jobs, their reputation, their way of life. In their hatred mind, forgiving and forgetting are the same action. How we are going to assure them that forgiving is not forgetting and forgetting is just plain ignorant? Or maybe it was not our problem.

Most Indonesian memory do not last for more than 10 years. They do not remember why thing happened the way it was in 1998. They do not remember how to life under pressure, being afraid to talk their mind, scared to say something is right or wrong. They do not remember anything about the horrible past. They do remember all the supposed-to-be thriving economy. They do remember everything were easy if you had the money. They do remember how a public servant could become amazingly rich. They choose to remember all the good things while forgetting all the bad things.

They choose to be amnesiac, selective amnesiac.

Being Forgiven

Just ask for forgiveness and be forgiven. Asking for forgiveness is hard to do because we, direct or indirectly, admit our mistakes. Especially if we were someone with great power. Admitting mistakes was the last thing we want to do because we were afraid to look weak or stupid. But mistakes were practically human. Admitting mistakes makes us human and respected as a human being. If someone being a human, they should be treated as human too. So forgiveness is also part of our humanity.

Sure, we could forgive without being asked. That’s the greatest human action we could do. Just don’t forget. Don’t forget why we need to forgive in the first place. Don’t forget so we don’t experience the same thing again and again.

Please, be a great human. Forgive everything, just don’t be amnesiac.

Anything happened in my life, what’s going on around, my thoughts will be blogged.

Blog berbahasa Jawa, ditulis oleh warga negara Malaysia. Beliau merupakan generasi kedua dari warga Jawa yang hijrah ke Malaysia di era 1930-an. Amat takjub saya membaca bahasa Jawa-nya. Why? Saya yang dari lahir clenger di Kalimantan, lalu pindah ke Jawa pada 1994 sudah lupa dengan bahasa Bakumpai dan Banjar. Ini ada orang Malaysia, dari lahir sampai sekarang belum pernah ke Jawa (menurut pengakuannya), bisa menulis Jawa dengan sedemikian hebatnya. Akankah ada blogger dari Suriname? Entahlah? Silakan buka blog bahasa Jawa itu DI SINI.

(dari yang dulu sering kena banjir sebelum pindah rumah)

It’s the time of the year again. End of year. I’d been overwhelmed with Real Life™ lately and the end of year phase was not really helping me to slow down either. So yeah, sorry for the lack of update lately. There were many issues need to be resolved before the new year comes.

2007 Recap

For me, 2007 was a decent year. Not too great but not too terrible. Meet dozens new interesting people, some actually played a great deal in my life now. Doing dozens of projects, some of them were great and interesting while the rest could be categorized as ‘pain in the neck but I need the money’ type of project. Well, to sum it up, I’d seen better years.

Although things were not all glitters and golds, 2007 was the year I will definitely miss. It was a year when I finally barely coped living in Jakarta. Jakarta is still hell, of course. Floods, traffic jams, crazy drivers, arrogant governor, corrupted local government, unpredictable cost of living were only small fractions of Jakarta’s problem. And it was getting worse. I was less frustrated not because the situation was getting better, I just get used to it right now. I wish I will not too comfortable with this situation and getting numb because of it.

Starting 2007 as a semi-permanent lecturer at Binus University International, I am still teaching there now. While teaching I’d been doing favors to dozens of companies, either as a consultant or involved directly in their companies or projects. It was exciting time unless the amount of time wasted in the traffic really tired me down.

Not much happening tho. Most of the time, it was all about surviving. Getting the projects when the saving was low, relaxing after all the bills were paid, looking for project again when the saving was starting to deplete, wash, rinse and repeat. While this kind of living giving me a lot of free time, this level of ‘excitement’ sometimes felt too much.

The Challenge

Then the unexpected came. Somehow, my resume got a particular company’s attention. We talked and after couple of months back and forth, things started to materialized. I generally turned off the possibility of working within a particular company in Jakarta but the challenge I’ll have to deal with this one was just too good to pass. It was a position where I believe I could make a difference in the world that I generally thought as clueless, ignorant and aimless when it came to the ‘digital life’.

So, starting January 2008 - as early as 2 January, I will work as manager for Carat Digital, a business unit of Carat, an international media company and part of Aegis Media, in Jakarta. As the spearhead of this business unit, my main responsibilities will be to expand the business of Carat Indonesia into the digital world by introducing, educating, implementing and utilizing “digital” in the communication and marketing strategy that Carat will employ for its current and prospect clients.

It was a tall order since most of Indonesian media and advertising agency (including Carat Indonesia) are still working within their traditional mindset. Almost everybody who know me already knew my almost pessimistic attitude about this issue. Some agency tried to ‘adopt’ digital and most of them failed miserably. Most of their problem were based on their hesitation (or arrogance?) to understand about digital completely. They thought they could treated digital media as the same as their treated traditional media. Of course, for some cases, they were right but what they didn’t realize was “digital media was more than everything we already know and learn from traditional media”.

When they treated digital media as traditional media, they were actually trapping themselves inside their traditional box. While many traditional practices still valid when translated into digital, there were many possibilities outside traditional practices. Of course they were untested as vigorously as the traditional practice but that was the exciting and challenging part. Name one of Indonesian media or advertising agency creation related to implementation of digital media as a communication and marketing strategy that actually worked or at least had some major impact. It was a common knowledge that a website (a very basic implementation of digital media for communication and marketing purpose) built by an Indonesian media or advertising agency would normally unusable, inaccessible, not compliance with web standards and fail to meet its purpose. For some of the time, the strategy was great but something went wrong when it came into the implementation phase. So yeah, definitely there must be a better way for media and advertising agency in Indonesia to adopt digital as part of its arsenal.

I am not saying that I have a magic pill that could cure all of those problem. But as a person growing up half of my life with digital and taking formal education specifically in digital media, I believe I can make the difference. The challenge is too great to pass and I am not the person who let go the formidable challenge. I am talking about interactivity, connectivity, immersivity and subtlety. It will all about people oriented website or digital media, viral communication, alternate reality game, mobile devices, digital installation and dozens of exciting things in the digital world.

I still maintain my teaching schedule at Binus, my new company allowed me to do it and I was very glad and thankful for it, but maybe I need to adjust the hours. Currently I still had to finish the current semester and I will need to readjust the hours for the next semester.

Resolutions?

I didn’t had the habit of resolutions. Not that I didn’t had any dreams or ambitions, I have a lot of those, it’s just I put things into a flexible box. While there were many pointers in that box, those pointers merely served as reminders than targets. But for 2008 I think I will emphasize one red thread to highlight 2008:

To learn, educate, think, create, implement, utilize, bring to the new level, explore, communicate, popularize and promote digital as an additional framework of thought for a better and enjoyable life.

All right, it was very vague and I’d been doing that since many years ago but I will make 2008 the year I will dedicate to achieve those goals exclusively.

Happy New Year 2008!

So, happy New Year everyone. I wish all of you the best and the greatest year. The journey will be hard but the learning experience will be valuable. Have a great new year eve and see you in 2008. It will be a very exciting year.

Megatron yang menjadi polemik itu berbahaya loh. Sebab para pengendara kendaraan, terutama sopir perhatiannya jadi beralih untuk melihat ke 'film' yang ditayangkan di Megatron itu. Kalo perhatiannya sudah beralih, maka bisa saja terjadi kecelakaan.

Saya sendiri kalo lewat di jalan itu selalu hampir 90% pasti melihat 'film' di Megatron tersebut. Tapi untunglah tidak sampai terjadi hal-hal yang tidak diinginkan.

Membaca berita dari jawapos, sepertinya doaku terkabul. Dari berita jawapos tersebut tugas utama dari Team SPEED adalah "menindak para pelanggar lalu lintas, penindakan terhadap kelengkapan kendaraan yang bukan peruntukannya (misalnya helm tak standar, lampu belakang putih, pelat nomor yang tidak sesuai spesifikasi teknik), penertiban PKL dan pasar liar, serta mencairkan kemacetan yang tidak wajar"

Betapa terganggunya pengguna jalan yang didepannya ada kendaraan dengan lampu belakang yang seharusnya merah diganti jadi putih. Menyilaukan. Dan bisa membutakan sejenak.

Semoga Team SPEED bisa menjalakan tugasnya dengan baik. Eh sek, tak cek kendaraanku, sapa tau lampu belakangnya jadi putih. :D

Debian dibagi menjadi 3 Branch. Sid, Testing dan Stable.

Sid, Juga disebut Experimental/UnStable Branch. Program-program yang masuk dalam Branch Sid cukup stabil untuk dimasukkan dalam branch ini oleh Upstream Developer. Dengan sedikit tambahan The Debian Way.

Testing, Program-program yang telah masuk masa karantina di Sid dalam beberapa waktu, akan otomatis masuk dalam Branch Testing. Dengan catatan, tidak ada bug yang serius yang dilaporkan.

Stable, Setelah masuk di Testing dalam periode tertentu juga, program-program tersebut masuk dalam Branch Stable. Dan dengan dukungan Team Security untuk update security selama 1 Tahun setelah Versi Stable berikutnya diluncurkan.

Nah sekarang pertanyaannya adalah:

"Which debian are you?"

It’s been a month since my last entry… I’ve been very busy with every inch of life could offer me. Doing this and doing that. Working on this and working on that. I was exhausted…

Time is moving fast and I was sucked within. The traffic doesn’t really help and the people’s attitude really does not improve the quality of life. Overall, while of course there are other good things here and there, living in Jakarta slowly turn people into drones.

I’ll try to write more regularly now. Hopefully soon there are some little change in my life. It will not be too big of a change but it will be a change anyway. Change is always good, it keeps life interesting.

Nginstall Kubuntu Gutsy di komputer baru. Eh ternyata ethernetnya cuma bisa nge-ping ke IP dirinya sendiri. Sedikit searching ternyata ethernet VT6102 itu ada sedikit bug.

Pernah ngalami abis upgrade paket terus malah broken?

misalnya seperti ini:

Setting up samba (3.0.24-6etch6) ...
update-rc.d: warning: /etc/rc2.d/S91samba is not a link to ../init.d/samba or /etc/init.d/samba
update-rc.d: warning: /etc/rc3.d/S91samba is not a link to ../init.d/samba or /etc/init.d/samba
invoke-rc.d: dangling symlink: /etc/rc2.d/S91samba
dpkg: error processing samba (--configure):
subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 102
Errors were encountered while processing:
samba
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

Ehm. Mungkin gak persis seperti itu, dan minta dijalankan "apt-get -f install". Dan hasil dari perintah tersebut tetep sama. Bingung kan? Muter-muter aja.

Cara memperbaikinya, khusus untuk yang samba tsb adalah dengan menghapus file yang ada error dangling-nya. Kalo dari baris diatas adalah: /etc/rc2.d/S91samba.

Setelah itu, remove paket tsb (samba dan samba-common).
Setelah itu install ulang lagi sambanya. Mulus..

Trims buat pak Fajran atas infonya dan turunan ilmunya.. :D

Polisi menangkap jim, bud dan sam, karena salah satu dari mereka dicurigai telah merampok bank setempat. Ketiga membuat pernyataan dibawah ini sewaktu di investigasi.

jim: saya tidak bersalah.
bud: saya tidak bersalah.
sam: yang melakukan itu si bud.

Jika cuma ada satu pernyataan yang benar, maka siapakah yang merampok bank?

Hm judul di atas bukan nama theme ini, itu cuma niru judul album Avril yang ketiga, kayaknya seru aja dijadiin judul :P

Lagi mikirin ide tentang themes WordPress, eh ternyata kok kepincut dengan tampilan sederhana homepage ala Google Analytics. Akhirnya tercetus keinginan untuk membuat themes ini. Dan seharian ngoprek sambil kerjain skripsi, akhirnya jadi.

Sayang, kuhadiahkan Basmalah untuk memulai hari istimewamu, dan ku akhiri dengan Hamdalah, dan diantara keduanya kusisipkan Toblerone kesukaanmu…Selamat tambah umur

Itulah ip yang meng-habiskan bandwidth dari buaya. Sempet panik, sebab langsung menghabiskan jatah bandwidth yang disediakan oleh Sponsor.

Akhirnya dengan amat sangat terpaksa, kabel ethernet harus dicabut sementara oleh pihak yang berwenang. Selama sekitar 2 jam. Namun, setelah 2 jam dicabut, ternyata ketika ethernet dipasang lagi, eh tiba-tiba langsung ada koneksi dari IP yang sama. Dan langsung menghabiskan lagi jatah b/w yang ada.

Mau tidak mau, dan dengan amat sangat terpaksa, maka b/w harus di shaping. Untuk sementara ini, bandwith yang disediakan dikecilkan sampai dengan 2mbps. Mohon maaf buat yang lain dan tidak kebagian bandwidth. Mohon bersabar.

Sampai blog ini ditulis, data yang bisa dapatkan adalah, IP tersebut adalah pelanggan telkom. Dan lokasi masih belum diketahui, kemungkinan besar berada di jakarta. Dari inetnum yang ada, tidak ada satupun yang bisa menunjukkan organisasi atau perusahaan apa pelanggan telkom ini.

Ya, cukup dua itu saja. Maka traffic kembali normal (buat kita di gatotkaca).

Kalo tidak ada noda, ya tidak belajar! (tm)

Tidak semua PS merupakan kependekan dari Pasar, tergantung konteks-nya.

Begitu juga dalam membaca Al-Qur'an. Tidak bisa separuh-separuh atau sepotong-sepotong, sebab nanti akan berbeda artinya.

It was a great party! Blogger Party 2007 was a successful and memorable event. Thanks to all of the committee, workers and sponsors and of course, big thanks to all blogger who were there or supporting the event from afar.

It was a blast. Words could not expressed how I felt there. Met lots of people, some I already met before, some I knew since ages but never met and some were new. We should do this more often, eh?

Blogger’s power

For Indonesian blogger, this event was a moment of recognition and acceptance. The Minister of Communication and Information Technology, Muhammad Nuh proclaimed 27 October as a “Indonesia National Bloggers Day” and I believe it made Indonesia the first country in the world to have a “National Bloggers Day”. He also promised to value freedom of expression for all blogger in Indonesia. Hmm, should Indonesia offers asylum to repressed blogger all over the world too?

With great power, come great responsibility (Uncle Ben to Peter Parker aka. Spiderman)

So the freedom was granted and the blogger was recognized highly… Now, how Indonesian blogger will respond to that?I believe Indonesian blogger are those rare people who understand and value great power and will use it wisely and full of responsibilty. Without those value, all of this will be vanished in vain and nobody wants that to happened.

Lighter side

On the lighter side, I was enjoying the event so much. It remind me years ago when I started this journal as a mere media to express my thought, opinion, dream and experience without restraint. I never dreamed that one day, blog became a giant snowball and brought down freedom of expression into personal level, especially in Indonesia.

The joy of meeting people I respect and read their writing every day was unbelievable. I felt like I knew them for so long, I could jumped in and started conversation right away with them. Amal said to me that day: “We already know them by their writing and that was a good start since we value and respect them by their mind and not appearance and any other physical attachment.”. I believe he was right on the spot and as an admirer of human’s mind, I think blog is one way to empower a human being to achieve the next level of thinking.

I enjoyed the party too much, I forgot to take out my own camera. Ouch. I know, it was blasphemy not taking any picture during the event but what can I say? I was enjoying the event so much, I really don’t care about taking photos. Anyway, those who want to see the picture could see hundreds of them at flickr.

So thank you to all of you, sorry for not put all of your blogs in this entry - there are too many of you! You know who you are, thank you so much for brought back my faith about Indonesian people. You are the greatest people I’ve ever known, all of you.

What’s next?

Blogger Party 2008, of course! Between them, I hope there will be many meeting and hangout among bloggers. Maybe not just for fun, maybe for business, profit and hopefully for the greater cause like peace on earth or whatever.

Hopefully, Indonesian blogger are realized they are now have a great power and great responsibility. Blog is not just a ‘momentary trend’ as one of the so-called expert said some years ago. Blog is the people power, the power dreamed so many years ago by the fighter of freedom.

Well, for me… it was a challenge. A challenge for a better writing and opinion. In the end, this journal will be one of my legacy and I want to have a great legacy.

Sidenote

Some promises were made. Actively contribute articles to 3GWeek for mas Budi Putra, continue my hiatus podcast for mas Rane and of course, writing more quality content for all of you.

Thank you all. I’ll be just around the corner if you need me.

Finally, using my own design again for this journal. Actually, I’ve been working with this design since around 4-5 months ago and didn’t had time to finish it. Some bugs are still lingering around, let me know if you found them.

Rusting Red

I named this layout “Rusting Red”. This layout relied heavily on Blueprint CSS Framework, which is a great CSS framework - safe me hours of tweaking.

Some new features here:

1. Adding Twitter, flickr and del.icio.us widget on the right sidebar.
2. Search now performed using Google Search.
3. No more CAPTCHA, using “Preview before Submit” method now.
4. Thanks to Blueprint, hopefully this layout is easier to read than the default template.

Of course, nothing is perfect, there are some things unfinished yet:

1. The Colophon and Contact sections are unfinished. This will be the first priority.
2. The Blogroll (Links to other blogs - yes, it’ll back) still not finished too.
3. Some bugs probably still laying around.

Well, I hope this new layout will make this journal easier to read and pleasing to the eyes. Enjoy.

Cara ini biasanya dipakai oleh Oblek disaat ber-wifi di public hotspot. Lumayan bisa mengakali counter bandwith, bila keadaan memungkinkan.

Nah keadaan juga yang memungkinkan sepupu saya si arie untuk lanjut browsing hari ini, meskipun jatah browsingnya sudah habis. Kejadian yang mirip di postingannya paman tyo. Mas boy juga menulis tentang Internet Access Policy di blognya (warning, english punya).

Balik ke arie, kejadian tutup menutup ini justru membuat orang2x tambah kreatif. Jadi dibutuhkan kesabaran yang tinggi buat para administrator. Seperti yang dikantor saya yang lama.

Di kantor yang lama, internet tidak di-limit-per-quota, tapi limit-nya model blokir file-2x tertentu gak bisa di download. Tapi itu bukan halangan buat hackernya lug. Oche.

Dengan sedikit program c, dan library curl. Di-baypass-nyalah tuh proxy.

Loh, judulnya soal SSH Tunnel, tapi kok malah cerita2x pengalaman. Sebetulnya bukan mau ngejelasin apa itu SSH Tunnel, tapi cuma mau ngasih link bagus nih.

Untuk pemakai linux, bisa dengan sintak berikut:

ssh -l namauser -L 3128:localhost:3128 ip.ad.dr.ess

Dengan catatan, di lokasi ip.ad.dr.ess diinstall squid yang jalan di localhost.

Short announcement, I believe most of you already knew it anyway.

I’ll be whirling around Blogger’s Party 2007 tomorrow, starting from 10.30 until 15.00 at BlitzMegaplex.

So, if you happened to be there, say hi and hang out together. Until then.

Siapapun bisa menjadi priyadi, itu yang saya ingat saat ada kejadian fitnah kemaren.

Terus apa yang harus dilakukan bila ada kejadian tersebut menimpa anda? Tidak banyak. Tapi yang cukup membantu itu adalah dengan membuat postingan konfirmasi. Dan men-trackbacknya ke situs yang bersangkutan.

Tapi untunglah Bapak Eep kemaren menuliskannya di blognya dan membuat jejak (komentar) di blog saya. Sehingga kejadian tersebut bisa diketahui. Terima kasih bapak Eep.

Dari tikabanget, saya juga mengetahui ada yang memakai nama Pakde Mbilung untuk mempromosikan suatu situs. Coba baca juga di sini dan sini.

Bedanya apa? yang dialami Pakde Mbilung dan Priyadi menjurus ke Pencatutan nama, dan yang saya alami adalah menjurus Fitnah.

Hal yang lumrah untuk dilakukan apabila anda mengalami hal tersebut adalah membuat konfirmasi atau press release. Agar tidak merugikan kedua belah pihak.

Demikian.

Short and simple Monday’s fun

Sorry for the long absence, I just took my sabbatical time off from computer and internet, well, not entirely but I just tried to get away from technology for a while and of course still busy with life, Ramadhan and Ied.

Happy Ied

For those who celebrated Ied, Happy Ied, may this year Ramadhan be a blessing and hopefully we all came out as a better person than before. Let us learned from our mistakes and do our best in the next year to come. Bless you all.

Ied’s SMS

Starting a couple of years ago, since cell phone became a standard gadget for almost anyone, the tradition of sending Ied’s greeting card rapidly became diminished and replaced by Ied’s greeting SMS (or mostly known as phone text message in the US and Europe) - technology won, eh? It was quite a shame, since I used to be a card collector, but economically speaking sending SMS is probably cheaper and saving time. I am not quite fond of sending Ied’s SMS myself with my own various reasons, one of them is I rather meet in people in person to say the greeting and if I didn’t had the chance to meet them this year then hopefully next year (such an optimist point of view, isn’t it?). I rather look the person in the eyes when saying the greetings and asked for a humble apologize, but that just me.

The Best of the Rest

From hundreds SMS I received this year (yes, hundreds - I was quite impressed myself), most of them are template-based. In fact I’d read the same about 20-30 SMS from different people. Well, that’s another thing about Ied’s SMS is sometime it was never personal. Of course there are exceptions and I would love to write about the best three SMS I received this year. I know this three people personally and for me, their SMS are truly the expression of their characters. So, without further ado, here they are - in verbatim copies (spelling and wording):

From Iyay:

Bosan dgn templet sms lbrn gitu2 doang!jd nda perlu so2 sopan ya smsny.maafin saya ya.klo salahku kurang bnyak.taun dpan saya bnyakin deh spaya pahala klian memaafkn stiap salahku smakin bsr..slmat lebran sodara!huehuehue (Translation: Bored with the same Ied’s sms templates! So, don’t need to brag politeness. Forgive me, OK. If my mistakes are not many, next year I will add more so your blessing will be bigger too. Happy Ied, brother!)

From Abiwara:

Ketik Abi [spasi] lebaran Kirim ke 0813xxxxxxxx Anda akan mendapat ucapan selamat lebaran dari Abi. Apabila tidak maka Abis sedang tidur atau habis pulsa. (Translation: Type Abi [space] lebaran Send to 0813xxxxxxxx You will receive Ied’s greeting from Abi. If not then Abi is sleeping or doesn’t have enough phone credits.)

From Harry Sufehmi, the ultimate geek! This SMS was probably not everybody cup of tea (it’s so geeky and techie oriented) but for me this one was the best Ied’s SMS I received this year. I laugh my head off when I read this one. He wrote about it too in his blog and received more geeky replies too. Nice one, Har!

/puasa # make clean
/puasa # configure --prefix=/IdulFitri/TheNewBeginning/
/puasa # reboot
Taqobbalallaahu minna wa minkum

So there they are, three best Ied’s SMS I received this year. Good to know there were still creativity and personality in this generic influenced world. Happy Ied everyone!

“Semoga kita masih bisa ketemu Ramadhan tahun depan”. Ungkapan itu dulu rasanya biasa aja. Tapi tahun ini, tiba-tiba rasanya lain.

Tahun lalu bapak mertua gue masih ada. Dan dulu rasanya beliau masih akan ketemu “Ramadhan tahun depan”. Tapi rupanya Allah berkehendak lain. Makin mendekati Lebaran tahun ini, makin terasa ada sesuatu yang beda dari tahun-tahun sebelumnya. Maut, rasanya begitu dekat, begitu nyata.

Masihkah kita, [...]

Selamat mudik buat teman-teman yang akan mudik, hati-hati dijalan, jangan lupa minum tambahan multivitamin, kalau capek berhenti istirahat.

Dan juga,
Selamat Hari Raya Idul Fitri 1428 H
Mohon maaf lahir dan batin.

Dulu, saya gak seberapa mengerti dan mungkin bisa dibilang tidak percaya. Ya, saya orangnya tidak mudah percaya iklan.

Tapi beberapa hari yang lalu, saya jadi percaya. Bahwa menggunakan philips memang lebih hemat.

atau

17.000 / 600 hari = 28 rupiah / hari.

Jadi harga lampu philips itu seharga 28 rupiah perhari.

Sedangkan bila kita menggunakan lampu dengan merek abal-abal. :D Yah itu merek lampu 5rb-an yang gak jelas kualitasnya. Paling maksimal bertahan selama 3 bulan--, memang tidak ada bukti ilmiah. Tapi dulu pernah saya beri tanggal seperti lampu philips.

5000 dibagi 3 bulan

5000 / 75 hari = 66 rupiah / hari.

Philips 28 rupiah perhari
Abal-abal 66 rupiah perhari

Wow, hematnya lebih dari 100%

Sekarang, bila kita ukur dari jam pemakaian, sehari biasanya saya pakai dari jam 9 malem sampai jam 8 pagi. Taruhlah segitu. Sekitar 11jam - 12jam.

Philips:
600 hari x 11jam = 6600 jam.
17.000 / 6600 jam = 2 rupiah per-jam

Abal-abal:
75 hari x 11 jam = 825 jam
5000 / 825 jam = 6 rupiah per-jam

Hematnya 200%. Jadi philips lebih hemat 200% sodara-sodara.

Terus kalo dihitung dari pemakaian listrik? Ha..ha.. Terlalu sedikit science untuk seorang budiwijaya.or.id. Selain saya tidak punya alat untuk penghitungan semacam itu, saya rasa alasan diatas sudah cukup buat saya untuk tetap memakai philips.

Apakah ini iklan? Mungkin.

Oh ya, saat ini, saya sedang mencoba kemampuan baterai dari handphone Philips Xenium 9@9d saya. Laporan/blog-nya menyusul. Ini baru berjalan 3 hari. Katanya sih, bisa tahan sampe 30hari. Mungkinkah? Atau cuma iklan?

Wah, sepertinya nanti barang-barang elektronik saya bakalan pake philips semua nih.

Untuk mas kawin nanti (masih nanti loh, jangan banyak ditanyakan di bagian komentar), jadi kepikiran untuk beli alat-alat elektronik philips. Kalo dana mencukupi.

Dan istirahat di saat lampu menjelang hijau.

Harapan, selalu datang, asal kita bisa sabar menunggunya..

No, it’s not the question for Kenneth and it doesn’t have any connection whatsoever with the meaning of that amazing song. It is a catch phrase I love to say when I am talking about ‘Social Network’. What is ‘Social Network’? According to Wikipedia:

A social network is a social structure made of nodes (which are generally individuals or organizations) that are tied by one or more specific types of relations, such as values, visions, idea, financial exchange, friends, kinship, dislike, conflict, trade, web links, sexual relations, disease transmission (epidemiology), or airline routes.

I like the radio and frequency analogy because since now we have so many ‘social network services’, it is common to say “Do you have ‘name the social network service of your choice’?” when we meet someone new or even our old acquaintance and want to keep in touch with them. For me, it is like we are ‘tuning’ into their frequency and keep on informed about their activities.

Join everything, update nothing

A stolen catch phrase from Satya, which said almost everything about the tendency of many people when joining a particular social network service, myself included. How many of you already registered with this and that social network services and updated them regularly? Probably, you only regularly update 3-5 services and leave the other service unmaintainable or sporadically maintainable. Those services you are regularly maintain are usually the services that your friends and peers updated or used the most too. That is ‘the frequency’.

What are my frequencies?

I love social network services. Not all of them, of course. There are some services polluted with hideous user interface and annoying ‘blink’, which I personally refused to use. I joined almost every services mentioned in the news but at the end of the day, I only updated some which I really love or the one which my peers used (even to my annoyance). So here they are in no particular order:

Facebook

Ah, the poster child of the latest social network service which doing things correctly. I love the simple interface and its famous ‘applications’. You could even built your own application if you have the skill and it is not so difficult too. With its powerful application feature, Facebook also serves as my ‘gateway’ into other services - almost all those services I’ll mentioned below have a particular Facebook’s application and I could easily updated them by just login into Facebook. This is the service I would love to use and maintain for a very long time. If I have to recommend one service online, I’ll say it clearly ‘Facebook is the one for now’. Here is mine, what’s yours?

Friendster

The least of my favorites. This is the first among social network service and the only reason I am still using it because almost all of my peers are using it. Yeah, when everybody jumped off the cliff, did you follow them? In this case, I did. Just for the sake of conformity and of course prestige (joining since August 2003 - where was you then?), so here’s mine.

Twitter

My favorite! This service are not particularly categorized as social network service but it served the social network scene right. It has the very essence of ‘the frequency’ since it keep us connected with each other on the notifying based. You were sitting at a beautiful beach, watching sunset with a bottle of orange juice in your hand or maybe you were having a bad mood? Type it on Twitter and all of your Twitter friends will know it. Here’s mine.

del.icio.us

Despite its difficult URL to type and remember but if you are an Internet explorer (not the lousy browser) like me, you will understand the value of an accessible from anywhere bookmark. Del.icio.us delivers that capability and it also shareable. So if you find a nice website or a great article online, put it on your del.icio.us and share it with the world. This is mine.

flickr

Sharing photos has been one of the thing most of us like to do. With so many online photo sharing services around, flickr is the one that get things right. I even given up my photoblog and now use flickr instead. Of course, you’ll have to pay to get the best of flickr but it is worth every penny. Currently I am not updating flickr as much as I want to (bandwidth problem is one the reason - it is painful to upload photos using my current internet connection) but I will keep on this service alive since I just love it so much. Want to see mine?

Last.fm

Want to share what you are listening now on your computer? Last.fm gives you this ability. I seldom access the main website itself, all I did was launched the application and let it scrobblize my playing list. It is that easy and easiness is one of the strong points of a social network service. Recently, I listen to this.

LinkedIn

Not all social network services are just for fun. LinkedIn is one of the ‘serious’ type of service I used. While services like Facebook and Friendster are talking about ‘friends and colleague’, LinkedIn is talking about ‘business associate’. I use this service for greater exposure of my resume and while it didn’t give me a particular benefit until now, it doesn’t hurt to keep this one alive and updated. Who knows if one day a good job offer will brighten up my day? Here’s mine

Those are the most updating services of mine. There are many services that I used sporadically from time to time, among them:

• Pownce (I like this one, but it really hasn’t grow into me yet, we’ll see),
• Tumblr (The power of microblogging, I would love to use this service more often, maybe later),
• 43things (I think I am not want much now),
• 43places (I am not traveling as much as I used to do now),
• Jaiku (I am satisfied with Twitter but I’ll keep Jaiku around because it shows some potential),
• IconBuffet (If you are an icon collectors like me, you’ll love this one)

and of course, there are many others which I sort of forget now - I’ll mention them from time to time later on.

So, what’s your frequency?
