Buy These Dirt - E Secrets
October 25th, 2008 Posted in Cyber Culture, Parental Supervision, Teen Issues
Ok, so I have steadfastly avoided hawking anyone’s goods on this site, but I have decided to make an exception.
Our pal - teen blogger Vanessa Van Petten - has a new e-book: Dirt-E Secrets of an Internet Kid.
In the book, Van Petten spills the beans regarding what teens are REALLY up to online.
Here are a few juicy bits:
- How kids sneak around parental controls.
- What we are really doing on Facebook, MySpace and niche social networks…maybe not what you think.
- The 20 most visited sites on the web by teens that you have probably never heard of and need to know.
- Why teens use social networks, IMing and cell phones to form their identity and how you can use the benefits of these technologies to help your child not hinder them.
In all honesty, I have not read this E-book. But if its as good as her blogging, this could end up being the Bible of Internet Safety for Teens.
Check it out here.
