List of Chabad websites
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Notable Chabad websites include those sites used for educational, religious and communal purposes run by or otherwise affiliated with the Chabad-Lubavitch, Hasidic movement. Scholars have noted that more than any other Jewish movement Chabad has used media as part of its religious, social, and political experience,[1] and that Chabad is one of the few Hasidic groups to utilize the internet and not shun it.[2]
