News for June 2006
- Week of June 04, 2006 - 'Video snacking'
- What you might call "teeny TV" got a lot of play in kid-tech news this past week - its TV and
video the way our kids will be consuming it, on cellphones in Web sites, probably well before
we feel any interest.
- Week of June 11, 2006 - Monitoring MySpace
- Social networking was back in the news big time this week, featured in an Internet summit in
California, a major series on CBS News and its Web site, on the front page of the Sunday New
York Times, and in a just-released study of teen communication tools.
- Week of June 18, 2006 - Safety in Teen Social Networking
- Safety in teen social networking was the focus of kid-tech news this week - partly because of a milestone
conference in Washington on 6/22. Hosted by the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, the meeting
brings together social-networking companies, law enforcement, children's advocates, and educators for a "dialogue"
on this subject.
- Week of June 25, 2006 - A Dialogue on Social-Networking Sites
- Children’s online safety was very much on politicians’ minds this past week, both on Capitol Hill and at an all-day
conference held in Washington on June 22 by the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC): A Dialogue
on Social-Networking Sites. Speakers included prominent pediatricians, researchers, children’s advocates, states attorneys
general, and executives from the top social-networking sites.
