Does your family use your computer to access the internet?
Are you a little concerned about some of the web sites out
there? This issue of BaliPCAdvisor is dedicated to you,
the Internet Family! Read on:
FamilyFirst. Looking for family-friendly web sites?
FamilyFirst has reviewed hundreds of sites over the years,
featuring a new site each and every day. Reviews are
brief and you are always just one click away from viewing
the site yourself. Go to http://www.familyfirst.com
SafetySurf. As we take the bus down a dark alley of
the Internet, we find that it is not always safe for our children.
Pornography, hate speech and chat room stalkers lurk.
SafetySurf has reviewed dozens of parental control and internet
monitoring products, and recommends those which have passed
the test. I personally know friends and relatives who
have used some of the featured products on their kids' computers
with good results. Go to http://www.safetysurf.com
Here are of my favorite web sites:
QuotesPlace - for the perfect quote from historical figures,
movie stars, tv characters. The most popular search?
Bart Simpson quotes. Go to http://www.quotesplace.com
Caption-This - funny photographs waiting for your smart-aleck
captions. Enjoy others quips or enter your own.
Go to http://www.caption-this.com
Virtual Whassup - Sure, the Bud commercial is yesterday's
news, but these greeting cards featuring the President, Hilary
Clinton and Britney Spears saying "Whassup!" are
still fun to send to friends. Go to http://www.virtualwhassup.com
And lastly, 2 sites I use often and save me both time AND
money! Free clip art and document templates for Microsoft
Word. I downloaded templates for a simple will, power of attorney,
birthday cards and a Christmas newsletter.
Microsoft Office free Clip Art and
Media Home Page:
http://office.microsoft.com/clipart/default.aspx
Microsoft Office free Templates Home
Page:
http://office.microsoft.com/templates/default.aspx
Actually, the whole http://office.microsoft.com site is underused---
there's a ton of stuff there, including a separate update
engine just for Office software. If you're using MS Office,
it's definitely worth a visit from time to time.
