About Inascifi
In the beginning,
there was ina_sci-fi.
Like many small electronic groups that formed in the virtual world, the community grew and shrank, and almost collapsed.
Then, the founder came up with the idea to shorten the name, to Inascifi.
The idea was to reduced the task of typing underscores ( _ ) and dashes ( - ) signs each time he sent an email to the group, and it worked.
The suddenly! Without warning, the founder’s father found himself being billed a good amount of American Dollars on his credit card. The founder bought the domain, inascifi.com .
It was a blessing in disguised. The Yahoo! provider allowed inascifi.com become a small business website, with many tools and emails and bandwidth space. But the main issue was not with the tools.
It was the tool user. He need time and concentration a large amount of fun in developing the website and community. Added with the burden as a research executive in a marketing research company, reduced his free time and creativity.
The science fiction community’s future was threaten.

Hello? Any other Indonesian Sci-fi Communities out there?
GUYS…
these Indonesian Star Trek fellows are impressive.
This year they had a gathering in Bandung, another gathering in Jakarta, and many other gatherings before that.
Still, as much I am a Trekker, I still love Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica, Firefly and other science fiction related literature/media.
I know there are two Star Wars groups in Indonesia (one dedicated to Jedi, the other to the Sith).
Where are they now?
A change is happening.
We’re happy to say that something will happen soon.
Stay in touch!
