Ipod/Iphone protection for students

If you or your students own an Ipod Touch/Iphone then you hold in your hand a powerful device that can be extremely beneficial, but also potentially harmful.  The Ipod Touch has all access to the internet… The good and the Bad.  I have found www.mobicip.com the best way to keep my ipod touch free from internet junk and I would HIGHLY recommend you to do the same.

There is a step by step description of how to protect your children with this product found at http://content.mobicip.com/content/how-setup-parental-controls-iphone-ipod-touch-os-3x-edition
Please take time to consider this if there is an ipod touch/iphone in your family.

I would also recommend the Covenant Eyes browser http://www.covenanteyes.com/services/mobile-solutions/, but you must have a covenant eyes account for it to work properly.

If you have any questions I would be happy to answer those.

Update:  Android 2.0 is the next generation of mobile operating systems and will very likely in a lot of devices very soon.  Please help to urge the software companies to make internet accountability software for Android.  You can contact Covenant Eyes and Mobicip directly as well as make your voice known on Getsatisfaction.com  I have started a request for this software at http://getsatisfaction.com/covenanteyes/topics/covenant_eyes_for_android and you can contact Mobicip at http://www.mobicip.com/contact as well.

Thanks
