Today on Tablet

Today in Tablet Magazine, Liel Leibovitz kicks off our special Web Wars! week with a look at how the user-empowering features of Web 2.0 makes it a fundamentally Jewish enterprise. Contributing editor David Rakoff is the guest on this week’s Vox Tablet podcast; he discusses the wisdom of pessimism. Parenting columnist Marjorie Ingall reminisces over The Adventures of K’Ton Ton, essentially the Jewish Tom Thumb. Josh Lambert’s weekly round-up of forthcoming books of interest focuses on Jews living in Muslim countries. The Scrollwill not be leaving you early this week.
