About JavaMilk

JavaMilk name was taken from suggestion by domain seller, so I took it since I think it was quite cool. I moved from free alisanta.wordpress.com since I found I lost some freedom in themes and widgets.

My name is Alisanta, born 1979. This is about my thoughts and personal experience. Hope you all can follow, share, and post your comment too. I have a lot of ideas during a day. But when it comes to computer usually I cannot remember anymore :)

I graduated on 2002 from Bina Nusantara University Jakarta, majoring in Computer Science. Currently working at Prisma Global Solusi.

I started my blog in WordPress on June 2006 with a few words, and now this site has been growing into various topics; from IT, gadget, how-to, and also my personal thought and experiences. The longest and most commented article in this blog is still about Guide to Europe in Indonesian language, also available in English.

I like adventure (sometimes) but most of the time just stay at home doing nothing. I play a bit computer games, but I love reading so much so my leisure time is fully packed with reading and browsing Internet.

  1. Interesting blog you got here! :D

    You do have a unique point of view on your every post. That’s why I’m lil bit discouraged finding some of the post is kinda short..

    Here’s my point of view in regards of your trouble in typing your ideas in computer. What you need is actually only a piece of paper and a pencil, so you can write your ‘intelligent ideas’ anytime. ;D

    Keep on bloggin dude!

  4. Hello!
    I was looking for the same: Internet Services in Indonesia… So thanks for the info! Do you know something about Internet Services based on cable/DSL/LAN dll. in Indonesia (means: NOT driven by HP or HP card)? Or is there no solution for such an access in Indonesia yet?

  5. @Thomas: If you want to install Internet for office around major district, try Metronet from Biznet or Telkom Metro. Both offer broadband using fiber cable.

    But for home use, one common solution is using ADSL from Telkom Speedy. Speed up to 1Mbps and quite stable. Another best solution if covered is to use FastNet from Firstmedia.

  11. Salam kenal Alisanta,
    Sebagai praktisi di bidang IT tentulah Alisanta sangat mahir dalam membuat blog pribadi. Saya punya rencana untuk memasarkan suatu produk tapi masih terkendala dengan pembuatan blog pribadi sebagai sarana promosinya. Jika tidak keberatan, saya minta tolong dibimbing bagaimana cara membuat blog pribadi yg sederhana dan mudah. Terima kasih

    @Monica, Sebagai langkah awal mungkin bisa coba membuat blog di http://www.wordpress.com atau http://www.blogspot.com. Proses registrasinya sangat mudah serta dilengkapi dengan themes sehingga tampilan blog kita bisa bagus.

    Setelah itu barulah mulai membuat article/post. Pada dasarnya penggunaan wordpress dan blogspot cukup mudah, yang sulit adalah menuangkan ide ke dalam tulisan. Sebagai permulaan kita bisa menulis pikiran pribadi tentang berita, teknologi, keluarga, atau tentang hobby, nanti seiring waktu dan pengalaman tentu harus focus ke satu topik khusus. Selamat mencoba!

  12. Hi Alisanta, I recently bought an Xacti HD1010 camcorder, mainly based on your review which I discovered last year.

    http://javamilk.com/2008/10/21/sanyo-xacti-hd1010-user-review/

    I was very impressed with the insights and sample videos you uploaded (Disneyland/Macau Night). I was wondering if you used any special lighting or camera filters for those clips? If not, could you possibly share or recommend any good settings for night/indoor shots? The night video you made looked fantastic when I viewed it on the PS3 and was the decision maker for me. I’ve been playing with my unit for a couple days now and although I have read the manual and tinkered with pretty much all the settings, I cannot seem to get anything close to the clarity of your videos. It’s either too dark or too grainy (not too mention shaky even with the stabilizer turned on). I’m beginning to regret making this purchase, but I would be very grateful if you could offer me some advice please.

    @Goobz, Thanks for your input.

    The only filter I install is UV Haze from Marumi, basically it does nothing except covering the precious lens from any scratches.

    A night shoot on Hong Kong Harbour scenery was performed using a tripod, and I only set to night shoot. No more additional setting. I also have shot same scene using firework mode and pleased as well.

    While a shot on night crowd in HK used Auto setting without flash, surrounding had enough lightings, so the camera could calculate exposure by itself.

    For room video shooting, I suggest you to play some more settings (Auto always perform well actually): ISO and exposure, this to reduce grain. Yes, Xacti still produces grainy picture in low light.

  13. Alisanta, thankyou very much for your insight. I have not tinkered with the fireworks or night shot mode but will definitely test that out to see if video improves. I think I will also have to invest in a tripod as I find this camera extremely shakey even with the digital stabilizer on. I have tried playing with iso and exposure to no avail, but I’m glad you reassured me that it is due to limitations of the camera. In bright natural light it really is a great piece of equipment and if I keep zoom to a minimum it moves fine.

    Thanks again for your help! I really appreciate it :)
