A few days ago I had the honour to meet Wimar Witoelar, who´s blog perspektif online is one of the most popular Indonesian blogs. (Though of course the blog can´t really be separated from the range of media that make up perspektif)

WW- who says he´s something like the mascot of Indonesian bloggers - and I spoke about the role of blogs in contrast with the traditional media. WW told me about his early experiences with the internet during his university time and during the turbulent late 90ies. He set me on track by giving an honest opinion about the involvement of Minister Nuh and Pak Habibie in the Indonesian internet revolution.

Hopefully, I´ll manage to get parts of the interview with WW online soon!
