Totally Wired Parents' Toolkit

Here are a few interesting links/ideas to help you navigate the digital landscape:

Cingular's texting bees for parents (Cingular will hold a series of interactive "texting bees" around the country early next year to teach parents how to send text messages to their children...) (New York Times, reg. required...I'll update this with a link to where and when as soon as I find one)

ReputationDefender (new company that will allegedly help you clean up your teen's digital trail if necessary)

Try either the Teen Chat Decoder or Internet Slang Translator to decipher acronyms your teen might be using.
