Welcome to the personal site of Hanan Cohen.

Read about me. Write me. See how I looked in the summer of 2003.

I am a member of Kibbutz Tamuz.

I make kites.

Follow my online activity del.icio.us links, Flickr photos, FreindFeed.

You can see what I am reading.

I am an activist in the Israeli Web scene. A part of my activism is translating text I like for the Hebrew audience. Some of my translations are:

• the Cluetrain Manifesto
• World of Ends
• User Interface Design for Programmers by Joel Spolsky
• Kissing Hank's Ass by Rev. Jim Huber
• The Searing Truth from Harold McGee's The Curious Cook
• The 10 golden rules of writing for the Web by Gerry McGovern
• Microcontent: How to Write Headlines, Page Titles, and Subject Lines by Jakob Nielsen

"According to Foreign Sources" - I wanted to publish a link to information about a nuclear facility located near my home. On the way I found out that an "anti-secrecy" organization has removed information from their site due to "security concerns". I also learnt how the Internet Archive works and found out that it is not reliable, datewise.
