A Couple of Good Resources from the Well of Online Safety
It’s the end of the day on Monday and I am sitting here ashamed of myself for not blogging these last few days… To make up for it, I’m going to share some sites that I think readers of the Pandora’s Blog will find interesting… These are some interactive online safety communities that we approve of and are becoming members of… Toss them on the radar and take a looksee…
The Internet Safety Podcast is a non-profit weekly program to educate parents, teachers, and teens about the benefits and risks of technology. The program helps make technical issues and solutions accessible in an educational, entertaining, and useful way.
The show is hosted by Dr. Charles D. Knutson (Ph D. in computer science), an Associate Professor of Computer Science at Brigham Young University, and Joe Brockbank, who holds a B.S. in Computer Science and an M.B.A. from Brigham Young. The two have been hanging out in the technology space for 20 years or so, and have been friends since the mid-‘80s.
All parents should listen to this weekly podcast. Also, their newly set-up wiki should be bookmarked for good reference. It’s a growing online community with safety in mind… much like our friends at the CyberHood Watch. Check out the wiki and listen to the podcasts.
Then there is Scott Hendison, an Internet consultant that runs Web Safe Kid. Don’t know why it took me over a year to discover his blog, but he’s been bringing issues to light and writing original (and very well-written, I should add) articles on Internet safety. Check out what he has to say. 
And of course, don’t forget to peruse our pcpandora.com site for some tips and a direct link to download, try and buy the best most awesome parental aid you can get – PC Pandora version 5.0 monitoring software!
