Family Tech: Easily manage what sites your kids see with Glubble
Started by hightechdad · 1 month ago

I use OpenDNS as well and parental controls on my kids' computers and now Glubble. Glubble is far more than a DNS solution. It is more of a permission-based system where you manually control the sites that you kids are allowed to visit via a browser. When they log in on the browser, they have a crippled version of Firefox, a friendly GUI, and a list of sites that I allow. If they want to go to another site, they have to "ask for permission." I can then approve or deny their request real-time (assuming I am online and using my Firefox browser).
I recommend that you try it out (or take a look a bit more through their site or my listing) and if you have more questions, let me know.
Thanks,

My name is Bartel Scheers and I'm Glubble's Editor in Chief. Thanks for your awesome post. That's really appreciated and of great help for our cause to build a better and safer web for children for free.
You might find it interesting to know that we've released Glubble Family Edition (or Glubble 1.0) if you like) for public download now at glubble.com.
Perhaps you'll find some time to give it a try and find for yourself why we think its fair to say that we've released a new product altogether.
We've made some super improvements in both functionality and technology, added features and more than doubled our default white list. We sincerely believe that we could not have done that without the help and support from thousands of users that took the time and effort to give us feedback via our forums, by e-mail and through posts like yours.
Thanks again for your awesome post.
Kindest regards,
Bartel Scheers

Thanks for the comment. I got the notification from Ian a few weeks ago and do plan on doing some evaluation in the next few weeks. I'm currently doing a series of hardware/device reviews but I can play around with the new release as well.
Thanks you for the reminder.
