Belajar Ulang Dari Indri Lidiawati : Hari Ini Saya Baca Ulang Lebih Dari 100 Artikelnya

Tidak terasa, Hingga waktu istirahat kantor lewat, mata saya masih terpaku pada layar monitor dan jari masih menekan tuts ke tombol "older posts" di blog Juragan Cipir. Sudah lebih dari 100 halaman atau artikel yang dibaca selama itu. Untungnya artikel-artikelnya pendek-pendek, jadi saya bisa membaca banyak selama waktu istirahat yang tidak panjang itu. Memang heran karena blog Juragan Cipir, kepunyaan Mbak Indri Lidiawati sendiri sudah lama sekali tidak diupdate. Rasanya sudah hampir 6 bulan sejak artikel terakhir diterbitkan di blog tersebut. Setelah itu tidak ada lagi tulisan baru yang masuk, baik dari si empunya atau para rekan sesama blogger. Situasinya sudah agak mirip kuburan karena perlahan tapi pasti forumnya pun ikut terimbas dan tidak ada lagi percakapan tentang apapun. Padahal dulu banyak sekali tanya jawab tentang Adsense atau blog. Meskipun demikian, tetap saja saya rutin, setidaknya secara berkala datang berkunjung kesini. Saya paham bahwa tidak akan ada apapun...
