Very cool stuff here indeed. Unsure if you know or not, but I've been toying with an idea for some time now that I think is pretty cool; social networking the friendlier skies, so to speak! Hope all is well, Josh. Hey Steve,

In conclusion to that I am not like alot of the people who you hear about on the t.v. Myspace is not a bad thing for kids it is all depending on how uyou act on your myspace page; if you dont be crazy and fall for what people say then simply nothing will happen to you. I think that parents blow it out of poportion because if you talk to people you know and people you have seen before then you dont have to worry about people tracing you down. I think that if you don tgive out personal information then you should be just find because mysoace and facebook andother programs like that ae to meet new people but that does not mean that it has to be on a personal level!

'For example, “Only .08% of all students say they’ve actually met someone in person from an online encounter without their parents’ permission.” For those of you that aren’t mathematically inclined, that’s a really small number. Compared to the number of news stories we hear about internet predators, it really forces you to start to put things in perspective.' Really, the fact that 1 of the 1277 9-17 year olds met a person face to face from the Internet, without their parent's permission is really not a statistic that truly has anything to do with Internet predators. There is really no correlation between meeting someone face to face and the amount of Internet predators that exist. I have a real problem with the part of the statement that talks about meeting people with parents' permission. I have to say, I don't think parents have a grip on the safety issues around meeting people face to face with someone that was initially met on-line. This can skew the data. How many parents gave permission for their child to meet someone face to face that they met on-line? That might be a scary statistic. I also wonder how many parents were with their child as the child and the person from the Internet had their initial encounter? Steve,

It is an attempt to engage parents and students through online communities (class, teams, clubs etc.) Some key tools include: Calendars, Live Quizzes, Assignments, Files sharing, Messages and an Answers tool that allows classmates (and teachers) to help other classmates with questions posted to the community. There is no live chat (or IM), and all communities must be sponsored by the teacher. Take a look and let me know what you think.
