Parents on MySpace
Michael Stephens published a post recently on libraries teaching parents about MySpace. (The original post idea came from the Youth Tech blog.) The concept is great. Rather than block social networking sites altogether, better to become more informed about them. Using education in concert with technology-based security solutions is really the best option of all. And who better than a public library to offer it?
Speaking of banning social networking sites, it looks like DOPA is dead for now. Maybe when Congress revisits the issue they’ll discuss the fact that there are compromise solutions worth considering.
