Yahooligans! The Web Guide For Kids

Tuesday 29 November 2005 @ 9:29 pm

Yahooligans! is a great portal for kids. It features comprehensive safe surfing, games, homework help, and many kid friendly activities.

Yahooligans!

Basically, Yahooligans! is a “kids-friendly” searchable directory of Internet sites for kids. Each site has been carefully checked by experienced educators to ensure the content and links are appropriate for kids aged 7-12. All selected websites listed in the directory are handpicked by Yahooligans!’s specially trained editors, not from some filtering process, so they are safe for kids to browse. In addition to this directory, yahoo also has a number of fun features, including Yahooligans! Games, Sports and News pages, Movies, Animals, and lots more.

All in all, Yahooligans! is a cool web-surfing tool of choice for kids. So, parents like 5xmom, Double Happiness, Willwolf, and even Rojaks Daily should now direct their children to Yahooligans! instead of some other polluted search engines. LoL… :D

Is Your Blog Good Or Evil?

Thursday 24 November 2005 @ 4:44 pm

After a long 10 days apart from my blog, I miss blogging so much. My apologies for lacking of updates for the past 1 week or so, due to the exam papers and some personal stuffs that I should have completed a few months ago yet kept postponing them. Anyway, I am now back with some cool IT news and info coming your way!

I am 42% Evil 58% Good

Here is the first thing I wanted to share last week but had no time to blog about it. It’s actually a website that analyzes how good or evil is your site, regardless blog or normal website. The analysis done in the website, named as The Gematriculator, is backed by the methods of Gematria developed by Mr. Ivan Panin, a Russian mathematical genius who was born in 1855. Don’t ask me how it works, to me, mathematical equations are unexplainable. :p

Quoted:
