One aspect of blogging is bringing like-minded people together.

When the internet was new there was a fellow named Jacob Richman who made the effort to compile lists of jobs available in Israel in order to ease the efforts of those planning Aliyah. I'm glad to see that he's blogging and promoting Israel still! Here's more about Shai Agassi.
