Announcements #147: mi.yodeya

mi.yodeya - An online community for Q&A about Jewish life and learning

What would you really like to receive for Mishloach Manot on Purim?

Why do we sing about Charvona specifically after reading the Megilla?

Why do we continue to keep two days of Yom Tov outside of Israel?

If I put tefilin on in the afternoon because I missed in the morning, what should I do in them?

These are just some of the questions that recently got interesting answers on mi.yodeya.com, a new online community for questions and answers about Jewish life and learning.

Based on the technology behind StackOverflow, the wildly popular programming website, mi.yodeya gives you the chance to share your curiosity and knowledge about all things Jewish with a crowd of other sharers. At the same time, you get to help enrich the Internet with a repository of Jewish information expressed in the language of people who want to know it.

Do you ever want to quickly ask a bunch of people what the best way to ____ is?

Are you ever stumped by something you see in your chumash or siddur?

Do you enjoy sharing your Jewish knowledge with curious people?

Come to mi.yodeya.
