bio

Born in Israel, raised in Canada, only to relocate back to the land of "milk & honey" and surround himself by far too many Americans, David Abitbol is all things digital and Jewish. Better known to the blogg-o-sphere as "ck", David is the founder of Jewlicious.com. Among his other talents and skill set(s), Mr. Jewlicious is also a Web guru, former lawyer, and an artist (the kind you can give a Sharpie to and they create instant works-of-art on any inanimate object).

David Abitbol - Mr. Jewlicious

When it comes to creating new, "cool", and exciting ideas from one of the oldest, vintage concepts that exists -- well, the oxymoronic nature of this phenomenon is David Abitbol's middle name. Some years ago, after sensing a growing decline and indifference to their culture and religion, David and his comrades managed to take the 5,770-year-old essence that is Judaism, re-market it and distribute their personal views in a blog, hence making them available to one and all on the Web, only to not knowingly give birth at the time to a new, divine brand of Jew-cool that has come to be known as Jewlicious (or if you read Russian,Jewlicious.ru). Too much to digest in one breath? Or, don't believe us? Have a watch.
