Thanks for your support.

Re. question 1, that is a great idea!

In response to question 2, parents can add content to KIDO’Z according to their beliefs – KIDO’Z content can be totally personalized.

Contact us if you have any further questions.

I merely responded to a commenter above asking a question on the way content is selected. I am not making unqualified statements, merely describing how we deal with this complex balance of giving parents flexibility and control and children a great web experience.

Cheers,

CEO’s come and suggest a seemingly competitive product out of? You answer that one. For the most part people just throw their hat in the ring, but many express some angst or fear driven component of their own world.

As for the people who exhibit positive attitudes, call them enthusiastic if you will, I am always uplifted by them and the ones who ask really pertinent questions, wanting meaningful answers.

On the CEO or seeded comment aspect, making comments without even having tested something, well, we are all familiar with branding and PR either good or bad. KIDO’Z, which I tested some time ago, represents a unique, if somewhat overlapping value for an important segment of our society – kids. Kidzui is a fine platform, well thought out save the complexity for very small children, but that is not the ónyl distinction between these developments, not at all.

Rather than me going into minute detail, as I know Robin would just love Perhaps everyone with kids this age, should download the services and see which one suits their needs.

For those CEO’s of so called competitors, I suggest hiring someone like me (but you can’t because I won’t do it) to honestly evaluate the competition and report accurately on the pluses and minuses, rather than the insinuated expertness strategy so often utilized here and all over.

This is a great article and a great opportunity for some very nice people and a worthwhile endeavor. What happened to the positive attitude we all had when Web 2.0 became a household word? VC money surely didn’t become that scarce, did it?

I suggest learning from one another, all of us, and making better things through clean competition. Rather than what has become the “nah, nah, nah, nah, nanny boo boo” method to excellence. I think half the people on the Web these days need KIDO’Z more than KIDZUI because we all know most people hate to read.

Always,
Phil

From what I see, this is one of the most flexible while targeted solutions. It also offers a solution to limiting the time of day and duration of kids’ getting online. Well done!

I have two questions though:

1. Kids always want to be adults and play with the same things as adults do. Are you planning to offer a skin so that the app can be made to look vaguely like “dad’s FireFox”?

2. How intelligent / configurable is the content selection? I feel kids should be exposed to nudity in art, for example, and yet not exposed to hardcore action.

Thanks for the feedback.

I 100% agree that parents are the experts about what is suitable for their children.
This is the whole basis on which the KIDO’Z platform is built – to recognize the uniqueness of each child.
Parents can choose exactly what their children can access – they can block all public content and allow only what they approve of (or even only their private content if they wish), they can choose to allow all content and manually block anything they don’t want, and so on.

The whole KIDO’Z system is designed for parental personalization.

All the best

it is a relevant question. There is a certain convenience in having a group of editors select suitable content for children. Problem with that approach is that it doesn’t really fit in reality. It isn’t an editor’s responsibility to decide what is suitable for your child. It is the parent that is responsible. Parents are the experts about what is suitable for their child. And that choice will be different for every family and every child. There is no ‘one size fits all’.

At Glubble we prefer to provide parents easy tools that allow them to decide what is suitable for their child. As the child grows older, parents can add sites and capabilities to their children’s environment. This approach puts parents in control and provides them means to let the web expand as their child gets older.

Great to hear from you!

Enjoy trying out KIDO’Z and we look forward to your and your team’s feedback.

Have a good day!

Thanks for your time.

PS. Don’t treat kids like idiots, not even with a “browser” like this.
