Byron Report and all that jazz…

Early reaction to the Byron Report on Gaming and Net Use by kids

While the Bryon Report, which I blogged about earlier, is itself is fairly unremarkable, sensible even, it will be the reactions of those in Government, in schools and in homes that will make or break it.

Click and read that review - it’s my favorite of the report flack.  Although, Larry Magid’s is pretty great too:

Sorry for not adding any commentary myself.  I’m feeling a little overly outspoken lately, a little redundant, and kinda sleep(?).  Forgiveness isn’t necessary but appreciated.

Heads UP: Tramp Stamps Available at stores near you?

Head’s up, parents! If you’re one of those long-suffering people who’ve wished your daughter could have some sweet ink on her lower back just like mommy does, but have reservations about the ethics involved with giving your grade-schooler a permanent tat, FEAR NOT, for some genius sticker-maker has given you a new option: Lower Back Tattoo Stickers. Yes, now your adorable little ten year-old can finally have the kind of tramp stamp that tells boys on the playground that she might just give them an HJ under the monkey bars if they play their cards right. And best of all, it’s been made conveniently available by the good people at Toys ‘R Us, who have strategically placed this hot new line of child-ruining accessories in the vending machines by the door, so right between the Hannah Montana and Minnie Mouse stickers, your kid can find the fake “Do Me Harder” lower back tattoo she’s always wanted!

Best Week Ever

Gross.
