The Ripple Effect II: Blogs For Next Year?
This entry is an addition to The Ripple Effect: Pesta Blogger 2007 Winners and Reviews article.
The ones that wins Pesta blogger 2007 Awards are terrific blogs, of course. They supply niche quality contents that are made for each own audience, in an extent of consistency and evergoing productivity. Unfortunately, the sites I’ve placed my bets on didn’t make the cut, maybe next year then:

One of my favourite, since I am one typical Jakartan and born-raised in this city. Maintained by a group of young commentary writers (Muhammad Rusdi Indradewa, Tasa N. Barley, Yonna, Andri Gilang, Ian Badawi, etc.), they expose on the Jakarta’s conflicting social issues varied from traffic jams, education, culinary, entertainment, and so on.
