I got word this morning that TheMarker, Israel’s prominent business magazine and Haaretz, one of Israel’s largest newspapers, featured SOMEWHAT FRANK in a spread titled "The Blogs That Every Israeli Startup Should Know."
Here is the list of blogs described in the article as “Must Know” for all Israeli startups according to Eze Vidra who offered up some additional insight and translation since I do not speak Hebrew:

It just helps me to further validate all the hard work and late nights that keep SOMEWHAT FRANK going and proves I am not the only one. Thank you very much to both TheMarker and Haaretz for the mention. You can see some photos of the article in print (also below).
