Dear Rebbi, shlita

There's a website ( 4torah.com ) that has in its database a list of many, many frum Torah websites on the Internet. You type a Jewish topic on 4torah.com , and it finds all the frum websites that have those terms.  Here's a quote from 4torah.com :

"Search Torah topics from respected, pre-approved Torah sites. 4Torah.com was created to specifically exclude irrelevant results one could find using a standard Google search. We have customized Google's vast index to contain over 1.7 million Torah-related text pages in English, Hebrew, French, Spanish and other languages as well as audio and video formats. All are hand-picked and deemed trustworthy by our team of frum editors. "

Recently, I recommended to the staff of 4torah.com to partner with a kosher Internet provider, koshernet.com , to limit Internet access to just the websites in the records of 4torah.com .  I hope they take my advice.

Please publicize this handy website.

Yaakov Simon
