Saturday Guard automatically shuts down your website during Sabbath (and ONLY during Sabbath) according to the browser’s geographic location. Another genius innovation from our beloved religious sect (did I already mention that I can’t wait for someone to invent sarcastic type already!) With the development of technology the Internet takes a major roll in [...] In October 2000, two Israeli soldiers entered Ramallah and were arrested by the Palestinian Authority police. An agitated Palestinian mob stormed the police station, beat the soldiers to death, and threw their mutilated bodies from a window. The mob then abused the bodies and dragged them through the street. The killings were captured on video [...] Ma’ariv, one of Israel’s most popular newspapers (both print + web), has gone through a comprehensive site re-design. Its about time they changed their horrid color palette (reds and yellows), to a much cleaner set (grays) with a well structured UI, which actually feels somewhat like nytimes.com.

She is a phd student in Israel, writing a dissertation on the Israeli blogosphere, specifically the Isra-blog platform. Israel is considered a technology leader, quickly adopting widespread use of new applications and online norms. Blogs took off in Israel only in 2001, with the creation of Isra-blog, the largest [...] Passover is probably the only holiday that I get truly excited about celebrating. Not only because its great food, but for its many little customs. The Seder takes place on the first night of Passover. A time to get together with friends and family, eat well, drink lots of wine, sing and tell the story [...] I posted an article on the Global Voices Advocacy site, translating Israblog’s response to the agressive campaign against pro-ana blogs that has been taking place in the popular Hebrew portal. I’m happy with their decision against taking down these blogs, as with any form of censorship, the border between what is “kosher” and what is [...] Adnan Gharabiya, 34, lives in Wadi al-Na’am, a Bedouin community adjacent to Ramat Hovav in the south of Israel. The place is not connected to the electricity grid or to running water. While working on his thesis, Gharabiya discovered that the Internet, and in particular instant messaging programs, are extremely popular among Bedouin youth, the [...] Last night I went to a Hollywood Hill event, a fantastic LA based non-profit which brings together Hollywood creatives around social good. This time Benjamin Barber presented his thought provoking arguments on globalization, interdependence and the impact of consumerist culture. He described an erosion in the concept of sovereignty, which, today is meaningless. There is [...] Unilateral declarations have played a central role in Israeli politics over the past years. Israel’s withdrawals from both the south of Lebanon and the Gaza strip have been controversial in the region’s politics. On the one hand, Israeli leaders were awarded by major support both internally and internationally, resulting from withdrawal. However, Israel is still [...] The municipality of Kiryat-Yam decided to sue Google for slander last week, after many complaints from its residents over false information presented in the Google maps application. The municipality claims that the false information in Google’s software harms the city’s image within the general public in Israel and worldwide. The Google Earth software claims Kiryat [...] |
