  1. A decent solution that offers lots of options on Good Email For Kids? · · Score: 1

    I think the key is to realise that as your child grows/develops s/he is going to need differing amounts of supervision. You want them to learn to be responsible "internet citizens" and that means taking care of themselves. But you need something that will protect them whilst they learn. http://safensoundmail.com/ is currently in beta but offers a variety of options allowing you to adapt to suit your child as they grow. Apparently you can put "beta" in the referral code to get a completely free account.

  2. My mother was using Ajax in the 70's on Bosworth On Why AJAX Failed, Then Succeeded · · Score: 1

    This is such utter tosh. My mother was using Ajax in the 1970's and I suspect it had been invented a long time before that. http://www.colgate.com/app/Colgate/US/HC/Products/ HouseholdCleaners/Ajax.cvsp

    Maybe there is a genuine need for a database program (and I use this term here loosely) that provides an interace as easy to use as spreadsheet? Not every user is a
    There is and it exists: eXtraSheet
  4. What another bank does... on How Do You Manage Requests in Your Organization? · · Score: 1

    eXtraSheet is a tool which allows you to capture this kind of data. At least one very large investment bank uses it extensively for this kind of thing.

  5. Given that it isn't really about computers... on Dot.Con · · Score: 3, Informative

    Given that the book isn't really about computers or the Internet, but about economics, perhaps a more reliable review might be found in a publication more closely aligned with that subject. "The Economist" gives the book a glowing review (available to subscribers only). Some readers may even find The Economist to be a more learned journal than Slashdot and therefore more likely to deliver a balanced review.
