Oy Ve. A Kosher Search Engine.

Too funny not to share…

koogleKoogle is a ‘kosher’search engine that enable devout ultra-Orthodox Jews to search the web without stumbling into sexually explicit or inappropriate material. The site caters to rabbis who want to search the web but fear being visually assaulted my immodesty or pornography. Cleverly named, Koogle is a play on kugel (yum)+ Google.

The best part: it doesn’t run on the Sabbath.

I’m overwhelmingly proud of my good pal Lex, who recently launched FamilyFridge, an online tool to help families stay on top of hectic schedules and keep track of significant life events.

It’s also free to use.
