making matza balls. And Bubbe offers
some words about a kid who wanted
more RAM for his computer as a bar
mitzvah gift and ended up with
something more enduring — a shofar,
from a different kind of ram.
Now that's a real '90s story.
There's poignancy to many of the
stories, and a degree of spontaneity
that belies the medium; they're more
like conversations than literature.
Much of the tone of the site comes
from the stories its creator, Abbe
Don, heard from her great-grand-
mother, Annie Shapiro. One powerful
example: Shapiro, who died in 1984,
describes giving birch to twins in
1913, and the abortion she consid-
ered but didn't have.
The site includes another of Don's
projects: a "Digital Story Bee.
The idea here is for groups to get
together in real life, sitting in a circle
and trading stories. Some of those
stories, then, are added to Bubbe's
Web site.
Don's work as a professional Web
designer is evident in the slick inte-
gration of old photographs and text,
and the easy-to-navigate design. Visit
it at wvv-w.bubbe.com/

Did you know you can pick the
site that comes up automatically
every time you load your Web
browser? A longtime Jewish
activist and Web pioneer —
Mitchell. Bard — is waging a
campaign to get Jewish cyber-
nauts to pick a Jewish site as their
opening page. Naturally, he hopes
many will choose his excellent
site — JSOURCE, the Jewish
Student Online Research Center
(www.us-israel.org/jsource/).
Go to that site for directions
on how to change your home-
page.
