Now that I write longer & longer here, shouldn’t I restart my english blog? I have stopped them for a while.

The twilight and the dusk I have figured as fantastic composition of impressive colours might have seen by others as threatening darkness. Visual perceptions vary by its observer. Like I have just relearnt that after being involved in a discussion of Telkom’s new logo. What I was thinking then was … my tumblelog, and other picture-based microblogs. Have they really spread the same idea (plus minus interesting nuances subjective to the observer) I have been trying to tell the world? They only tell the observers what the observers want to think about.
As messengers, pictures fail. -

Jauh sebelum blog dan Internet, aku belajar meniru kebiasaan Papap menulis catatan harian. Catatan harian Papap dulu bisa dicari dan dilacak ke tahun-tahun sebelum aku lahir. Aku masih ingat pernah menemukan versi 1965.
Apa yang tertulis tanggal 1 Oktober?
“Cimahi kisruh.”
That’s all
.
Aku bayangkan situasinya mengharuskan semua bergerak cepat tanpa ada kejelasan tentang apa yang terjadi. Tapi beliau sempat menuliskan dua kata itu di catatan hariannya. -

“Ka mana yeuh, buka puasa? Cari yang seger2 yo!”

I even have my own url-shorten service. But I don’t think I’d use it anymore. Prefer Adham’s siteo.us instead.

Now I feel stupid. This is not a miniblog. This is an inefficient and stupidly-arranged blog or tumblelog. Short texts here, shorter text on twitter, pictures on kuncoro.co.uk and koen.im, video on meme.yahoo.com/koen, urls on mark.koen.cz, music somewhere else, book list dunno where. Should arrange it in a single room, shouldn’t I?

For those who are still in doubt whether iPhone allows push-mail, the answer is yes. But certainly I don’t allow all of those message to be pushed here. I don’t have no time for no monkey business
.
For your eyes only, if you DM me on Twitter, your message will be pushed. Beep. So, stop those silly mails and SMS. Tweet. -

I believe that Twitter fits seasoned internauts (coder, blogger) while Facebook is better for socnet novice (abege, senior, reuni). That’s why Twitter is not a good place for learning. Twitter is for grokking, for contextual communications. If you still need to learn, to link systematically, to easily gather information, Facebook might be for you. Even though, I would suggest you to blog rather than spending your time for Facebook.

For my brothers in Indonesia and Malaysia, Rasulullah has said: “Anybody who believes in Allah and the Last Day should not harm his neighbour; and anybody who believes in Allah and the Last Day should entertain his guest generously; and anybody who believes in Allah and the Last Day should talk what is good or keep quiet.”
