Get Net Wise with Social Networking Sites

My 22 year old daughter is a big Facebook fan. We moved during her junior year in high school, and she has reconnected with many of the friends from her old high school and community through Facebook. But the privacy challenges associated with social networking sites like Facebook, MySpace and Twitter can be a little overwhelming for the novice. The folks at GetNetWise.org have created some video tutorials that can help clueless parents like me set security and privacy options on these three services. This, with a lot of other information about protecting kids online can be found at their site.

Also, dad, if you want to get into social networking on your own, check out our list of the top social networking sites for fathers.  And get connected.
