That’s awesome! Israel has always been a center for engineering innovation. Probably because they significantly lack natural resources.

Another great startup in Israel is the very new
poketalk.com.

They are the first completely free “phone to phone” calling service on the internet.

And in less then three months since their launch they have accumulated over 70,000 users.

The interesting part is that this same nation is only 20% of the population it was 70 years ago!

the rest 80% where killed murdered by the Germans which where at that time the most technological nation!
That is a win for them to be right here!

I worked with a number of Israeli companies and been there a few times, it seems like the entire Tel Aviv area (I haven’t been to other parts of the country) is a big Silicone Valley. I am not at all surprised by the success of they’re Hi tech industry, I’ve never seen a place with so many talented people and so many Software\Hardware companies. I think every third car you see on the road in central tel Aviv has an Software company sticker on it, I was told a leased car is one of the benefits there if you work for an IT company.

BeFair is what you’d call a troll.

He’s pretending to be a Jew and is calling himself superior just to get everyone else to say “what an asshole. I hate Jews”.

Or he could really be Jewish, but just a big idiot.

Besides the fact, this is a tech site. Israel is a country, not a religion. Technology has nothing to do with religion. Only an idiot would bring up religion in a post about Israeli technology.

@Ghaus

Jesus was a Jew himself- isn’t it funny that the entire Christian religion is based on worshiping a Jew?

Replace the word “Israel” with, lets say, “France” in the whole post and you get 3 responses like “Cool..”, “Congrats” etc. instead of 37 with keywords like “corruptuion”, “unfair”, “unloyal”.
Classic.

@BeFair

“God chose the Jews to give us his bible.”

And Jews killed Jesus, to proof that they don’t need it.

Come on everyone, if you guys need to fight then go somewhere else. This place is for tech only.

yeah i agree. techcrunch really shouldnt focus on the technological side of israel. they should post political posts and take sides in the middle-eastern conflict. yup, that sounds like a good idea for a tech blog.

What a bunch of asinine comments by folks who have little understanding of the situation in the middle east and have probably never been to the region or have never spent time with Israelis to get a feel of the culture and people behind the headlines.

@3lance – Israel has, throughout the years, developed a wealth of engineering and innovation. Some of the things you use on a daily basis, the intel pentium (Intel’s dev labs in israel) and modern mobile phone technology (Motorola’s dev labs in israel), were all developed in Israel. Stating points about Israel’s work in the development and engineering field has nothing to do with “overlooking” the situation in the middle east – on the contrary, it’s amazing that a country with only 7 million people under constant threat are pushing themselves forward, a situation which most people have difficulty understanding and are very quick to judge based on what they hear or see on TV.

fair man – this site seems to be run by people of a certain persuasion hence the need for this type of article to tell us how great they are and overlook the many not so great things they do

A Fairy Man, Your IslamoFascists Mullahs don’t provide your sutisfaction?
God chose the Jews to give us his bible. At least the Muslims say it too.
