I supposed you have seen this: http://www.nytimes.com/2009/05/03/business/03stream.html?th&emc=th "In a loud and proud public announcement, it said it didnąt care whether its members visited Facebook.com at all. The company said it would provide a set of technology tools that will let other companies create programs that tap into the heart of the social network ‹ the endless stream of photographs, status updates and comments that people post to the service. Saying it is unable to provide a range of access to the service from every possible gadget, Facebook expects developers to create Facebook programs that sit on computer desktops, run inside Web browsers and are tailored to a wide range of mobile devices like the iPhone." Anyone want to hazard a guess how the filtering companies are going to handle this? And they think proxie sites are a problem. I am going to a meeting next week on suicide prevention and new media. Many of the folks attending have provided us with their online activity addresses. Most are risk prevention sites - that have a presence on Facebook, MySpace, and YouTube. Hmm. Does anyone see a major problem here? Students can't access these sites because they are all blocked. Nancy -- Nancy Willard, M.S., J.D.
