KidZui: Browser For Kids

As a parent I was happy to read about this new browser for kids called KidZui. Although my kid is still too little to browse the Internet or even use the computer, it's good to know that there's technology such as this that makes browsing the Internet safe for kids. So what is KidZui? KidZui is basically a browser based on Internet Explorer (if you use Windows) and Safari (if you use a Mac) that "whitelists" websites, photos and videos that are suitable for children. 200 teachers and parents across the US were hired to scan the world wide web to look for appropriate content that would be included in the whitelist. As of now, KidZui has 500,000 whitelisted websites, pictures and videos. All content gathered by KidZui are manually reviewed by humans before they get included in the whitelist to make sure nothing inappropriate gets thru. Screenshots: Start Page Create Zui Page

I have been a Firefox user and avid fan for many years now and started using it since it was called Firebird. Why do I prefer Firefox? Because of it's security, speed and most of all because of it's flexibility. You can change the way it looks with different themes and add more functionality with add-ons/extensions. If you're still not convinced with Firefox and prefer to use the Internet Explorer but would like to have some of the capabilities of Firefox, then maybe you should try IE7 Pro.
