Online Safety Resource List
I came across this page recently while researching Internet safety. The Family Online Safety Institute has compiled a comprehensive list of resources for parents. There are some that I was already familiar with, like NetSmartz and CyberSmart Kids. A new one for me that looks very interesting is Get Net Wise. It has some great resources.

FOSI has been a very helpful organization. Great resources.
I'd love to hear your comments on some blog posts I published a while back about cyberbullying and online predators:
1. Safety Tips for Parents: http://www.covenanteyes.com/blog/2008/03/25/a-parents-guide-to-internet-safety-for-children/
2. Online Predators: http://www.covenanteyes.com/blog/2008/04/03/protecting-kids-online-the-myths-and-realities-of-online-predators/
3. Cyberbullying: http://www.covenanteyes.com/blog/2008/04/07/cyberbullying-the-new-playground/
Another thought: Have you ever heard of accountability software? Accountability software is specifically for adults who want to guard where they go online without any blocking or filtering. Combined with filtering, it's a great Internet safety solution for the whole family. If you want more info about it check out my post “Is Filtering All There Is?” - http://www.covenanteyes.com/blog/2008/06/12/is-filtering-all-there-is-introducing-accountability-software/
I have heard of Covenant Eyes. I've mentioned it in several of my presentations. It sounds like a great product, though I've never used it.
