Janglo was started in June 2001 as a free community service to help people in
the Jerusalem area exchange information about "stuff", like jobs, apartments,
events, and sales. About a year later, we launched a similar site, Taanglo, for
the Tel Aviv area. Both email lists quickly took off and became some of the most
popular sites for English-speakers in Israel, with many imitators. The site you
are looking at now, Janglo.net, combines the best of both lists and builds on
them, strengthening their community aspects while expanding them to the entire
country.
Janglo was founded by Zev Stub. Zev grew up in Chicago, and made aliya in
June 2000, right after he graduated from Yeshiva University. After spending
several years in Jerusalem's hi-tech and business journalism scene, Zev now
manages janglo.net while learning in yeshiva.
