Updates to Planet Terasi
It’s been more than a year since a major update was done to Planet Terasi. The recent bru-ha-ha kinda forced me to do an update.
So I did these:
- I clarified the general topic for Planet Terasi in the About Planet Terasi section,
- I also put clarification for inclusion (and rejection) in the contact page,
- I removed some of the non-functional feeds,
- I removed some of the feeds due to complaints I received from readers,
- I changed Budi Rahardjo’s feed to only include the tech section (Pak Budi: I know you asked me to remove your feeds from Planet Terasi, but I hope you don’t mind me keeping this one. If you do mind, please let me know, I will gladly remove it.)
- I went through 188 inclusion requests sent to me via email (collected for over a year now) over a slow internet connection and reviewed all 188 blogs (the working ones anyway) to be included in Planet Terasi,
- I decided to add 20 new blogs to Planet Terasi (can you name them all?),
- I bugged my network administrator to open SSH access so I can update Planet Terasi,
- I wrote this post.
Most of the blogs from the 188 requests that I did not add are due to obvious splog (spam blog), off-topic, or unreachable when I reviewed them. Some of them are apparently very popular, very well written, and very well designed. I’m hoping I could post them here later so that you can still check them out if you like. I have added some of them to my personal aggregator.
I’m actually amazed and happy at the same time that people care enough about Planet Terasi to make a petition. But it was not necessary. All you need to do is fill out the contact form and talk to me. I appreciate all your input. And I hope I can keep Planet Terasi useful and fun to all its readers. Thanks for all your support.
