Hey y’all. I apparently suck at keeping a blog. That’s why I became a Twitterer.

That said:

Here’s my latest op-ed on the difficulties of doing a Jewish social entrepreneur fellowship if you’re lower or middle class. It sparked a mighty interesting conversation throughout the Jewish community, eliciting responses from the Joshua Venture’s Lisa Lepson, the Jim Josephs Foundation’s Adene Sacks, PresenTense’s Ariel Beery, Upstart’s Maya Bernstein and Jewschool’s newest contributor Donald Cohen-Cutler. I’m interested to hear your thoughts…
I recently had a rather fascinating open dialogue with UJA Federation of NY’s John Ruskay at the B’nai Jeshurun Men’s Havurah. You can check out the coverage in The Forward and The Jewish Week.
It’s worth noting that I also got engaged recently, which I have yet to remark upon here, so here it is. I’ll be getting hitched in August to the sweetest sack o’ sugar to dance upon this earth.
And finally, check out my latest endeavor: 31 Days, 31 Ideas, wherein I’ll be braindumping all my ideas to change the Jewish future over the course of 31 days, beginning January 1st.

Happy New Year!

JTA: Mission Accomplished

JTA

Today’s my last day at JTA.

After two years of making my mark and proving my worth to “the establishment,” I’m moving on to a new position with Repair the World, a recently launched Jewish service initiative that aims to make doing community service as ubiquitous as having a bar or bat mitzvah.

Patting myself on the back

Check out JTA’s new blog on Jewish philanthropy, authored by staff writer Jacob Berkman, which I named, conceptualized, and art directed. It’s called The Fundermentalist, a riff on 1920s magic motifs, and it’s hilarious.

…why I took a hiatus from blogging (ie., my departure from Jewschool and my sparse posting elsewhere, including here on OA), look no further.

Back in the game

Hankering for some Mobius bloggage? After a nearly seven month hiatus, I’ve returned to the field, albeit mildly, on JTA’s blog The Telegraph. Do check up.
And never you worry: I won’t be discussing politics.
