HistoryIn 1988, Yosef Yitzchak Kazen, a Chabad rabbi, began creating a Chabad-Lubavitch presence in cyberspace. With the advent of computer communication technology, Kazen recognized its potential for reaching an almost limitless audience, unlimited by geographic and other constraints. Kazen digitized thousands of documents into what became the world's first virtual Jewish library, and enabling thousands of people to learn about Judaism for the first time. Chabad.org served as a model for other Jewish organizations that created their own educational websites.[4] After Kazen's death in 1998, the site was rolled under the umbrella of the Chabad Lubavitch Media Center directed by Rabbi Zalman Shmotkin. Today, the Chabad Lubavitch Media Center maintains the flagship Chabad.org, specialized holiday sites, and over 1,400 customized sites for local Chabad houses.{{Citation needed|date=March 2007}} Jewish knowledge baseChabad.org has a comprehensive Jewish knowledge base which includes over 100,000 articles of information ranging from basic Judaism to Hasidic philosophy taught from the Chabad point of view. The major categories are the human being, God and man, concepts and ideas, the Torah, the physical world, the Jewish calendar, science and technology, people and events. There are comprehensive sections on Shabbat, Kosher, Tefillin, Mezuzah, the Jewish way in death and mourning and a synagogue companion. Ask the RabbiChabad.org was the pioneer of “Ask the rabbi” sites. Rabbi Yosef Yitzchak Kazen reached out to thousands of people on Fidonet, an online discussion network, as far back as 1988.[5] In 1994, Kazen launched the first version of Chabad’s “Ask the Rabbi” website. Today’s version, in which 40 rabbis and educators field questions via e-mail, has answered more than 500,000 questions between 2001–2006, averaging about 270 a day.[6] Many people take advantage of the Web’s anonymity to impart experiences and ask for advice from chabad.org.[6] Chabad.org also operates TheJewishWoman.org's “Dear Rachel”, a similar service which is run by women for women.[6] More than 2,000 questions and answers have been posted online. FeaturesChabad.org provides daily, date-specific information relevant to each day from Jewish history, daily Torah study, candle-lighting times, and forthcoming Jewish holidays. Chabad.org maintains a number of sub-sites, including
