I am not trying to be cheeky, but if Shabery Cheek wants to meet the blogging community, the first person he should call is Rocky Bru, the president of ALL BLOGS (National Alliance of Bloggers). [Just being cheeky about bloggers? Screenshots. March 23 2008]

A reason why bloggers are hard to deal with is the anarchic nature of the whole business. Every blogger is an independent individual with no queen of the hive acting as central command. So, when Jeff said if the Information Minister wants to speak to the blogging community, the Minister should first talk to Rocky Bru, I would like to say, I did not elect Rocky Bru or ALL BLOGS for that matter, as my representative.

In fact, the Minister should meet the president of the STFU, which is me! Hah!

A better engagement would involve an open invitation to all bloggers to discuss on whatever the Minister wants to discuss about and not with just one blogger or some shoddy association which claims to represent local bloggers. But even that is useless.

The best method is to read the relevant blogs, watch the beauty of free speech in action and practice it offline.
