Today, ABN’s first anniversary. Thanks for all of you!

Friday, June 6th, 2008

Today, Asia Blogging Network is marking its first Anniversary. Thanks to all bloggers who have contributed their writings to the AsiaBlogging, our blog network has been growing and growing now.

Personally, I want to say thanks a lot for you, AsiaBlogging readers and communities, who have supported us by visiting, reading, commenting and giving us your valuable feedbacks.

AsiaBlogging also begins to be recognised by the infocomm industry in Indonesia. Some big companies, some of them are the Indonesia offices of the global’s big boys, have team-up with us to conduct blogging-related activities.

That is why, the last but not least, for all our partners: Microsoft, Nokia, Intel Corp, Excelcom, Indo.com and Ministry of Culture and Tourism, Republic of Indonesia, who have advertised with us, I would like to say thanks a bunch for your trust and cooperations.

Bravo blogging!

ABN and the (new) fourth estate

Wednesday, September 19th, 2007

My colleague Jennie S. Bev wrote about blogging and Web 2.0 in Op-Ed section of The Jakarta Post, Monday (September 17, 2007) [PDF version].

According to her, the conventional media (or the press) –which is known as the fourth estate– and blogging as the new estate are going to complement each other. “As long as the rules of the game and boundaries are mutually respected, there are many things to be learned from each other,” she said.

Jennie also mentioned Asia Blogging Network (ABN) as a maneuver of the new estate from Indonesia:

…a collective effort to unify Indonesian and other Asian blogs has been executed through the establishment of AsiaBlogging.com, which might eventually form a group of influential pundits and opinionated bloggers and broadcasters. Such a unifying effort is an admirable accomplishment, as the selection process would elevate the credibility of Indonesian and Asian bloggers as equal counterparts to the conventional press.

We hope our blog network could mean something for the world of blogging and Web 2.0 and could be one of trusted sources and readings in the new media era.

Corporate blogging goes to Asia

Friday, July 20th, 2007

Blogging is an opportunity. That is why several companies are now establishing Guidelines for Corporate Blogging.

Despite the growing risk, few Asian companies have established policies that formally address employee and CEO blogging.

Since blog is one of communication means, the leader like CEO can use blog to communicate with his/her customers, stake-holders, employees, media, and even with his/her rivals!

It’s nice if Asian companies and CEOs could create specific model of this new media and communications tool.
