Beschreibung
This is a book about an online community of the Second Generation (2g), children
of Holocaust survivors. Created in 1995, e List was the brainchild of Paul Foldes,
a 2g electrical engineer and consumer attorney turned businessman. Knowing that
online communities were an opportunity to reach beyond local meetings, he founded
e List even before the web existed.
Created when internet communication was just beginning for most people, it was
the rst to break local and national barriers to become a truly international, Englishspeaking,
2g framework. Based on a free internet platform, with moderators working
on a volunteer basis, it required no funding. e Second Generation had nally
come into its own. e book tells the story of the List and its members over a quarter
of a century.
