This is the story of an average American installing below-average software in a very faraway place. Often humorous, sometimes lonely, sometimes frightfully low-tech in a high-tech world, Jakarta Journal is most of all purely spontaneous and totally honestqualities which may help to set it apart from other books on the shelf.This book was written only a few months ago by an American traveling to Indonesia to deliver and install aircraft maintenance software for a large charter flying service. Originally sent as emails to a select list of friends and relatives, Jakarta Journal lays bare life on the road in the sometimes smoke-and-mirrors world of low-end software, a curious backwater of a growing cyber-culture. Then, the book goes further, as the road warrior stops to reflect on the cultural soup of the Global Village. Jakarta Journal is one travelers reflection on the larger world and the people he encounters.
