Internet is one of the interactive media which enables one to interact with another or with a group
regardless of time and distance. Internet is used in a wide range of needs, such as a medium for
communication, education, and social media for business. It is also used by Kicau Mania (a
community of birds enthusiasts spread all over Indonesia) to have information exchange about the
animal and bird trade via Internet. Informants in this study are lovebird breeders in Jakarta, Bogor,
Solo and Yogyakarta. Information obtained by breeders are mostly from blogs, social networks, and
the Kicau Mania tabloid. Internet is considered as the most effective medium for lovebird breeders and
enthusiasts because it can be a medium for the exchange of information comprehensively by
displaying photos and videos of birds.
