G-d bless the Rabbi's on fb.
2. Aren't the religious forbidden from using the Internet
Israel   (07.28.11)
Seems noone is paying attention to that one.
3. How do I get rid of those revolting ads

at the side of the articles?
4. Local Chabad lost me when they went to Facebook.

There was a nice little Chabad I walked to, they sent emails inviting me to events and Shabbos, then closed down for a period when they lost the building. On getting a new home, I was twice invited by email to log into their Facebook account and bring a housewarming gift. Twice I emailed them saying I don't have a Facebook account and what could I bring. I never got a reply and I never showed up. I guess I just don't need to attend this Chabad or help them out, as I did, if the price of admission is joining Facebook. The emails don't come and they are two blocks away. Long live Facebook I guess, but not in my home.
5. Get rid of annoying ads in Facebook?
Bunnie Meyer ,   Los Angeles, CA USA   (07.28.11)
Download and use Firefox as your Facebook browser and use AdBlock Plus as a plugin. Use the left click of your mouse to select options to block images and you won't see them again.
6. How to get rid of the ads at the side of the articles

To faceless: I use an add-on called Ad block Plus, it works with Firefox and I am very satisfied with it, the sides are clean.

8. More than U bargained for
Ish Yidd ,   New York   (07.29.11)
Was just browsing theunorthodoxjew.blogspot.com and it linked to this page Ynet...where at the feedback section are 3 Hasidim complaining about blocking immodest ads inside the webpage. Interesting, just this morning on my bed I said; "Oh if only their wasn't so many advertisments INSIDE THE WEBBROWSER " . Now look, only a few hours later someone mentions this thing 'Ad block Plus' . THANK YOU !!!
9. Community Rabbi's
Mark ,   Maale Adumim   (07.29.11)
That’s the problem in Israel, Rabbi's are not community Rabbi's and if they were Israel would be even a better place than it is now.
10. What a wonderful opportunity
Neal Ross Attinson ,   Sonoma, USA   (07.29.11)
to advance learning and connect with those who can't come to synagogue due to disability, etc.
