A step in the right direction, but my 11 year old is unimpressed. They need to realise that an 11 year old has grown out of this stuff, but there is still plenty of stuff I wouldn't want them seeing, and that a filter on obscenities in comments may be a good idea. (Note, it isn't just Google need to learn this lesson).

A first step would be convincing the US "Opposite of Progress" that regulating 2 and 12 year olds identically online is elephanting retarded... (As is regulating 13 and 113 year olds the same...)
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint. You like that? You go right on staring at it. I prefer looking at galaxies. -- Sarah Hoyt
