Writer’s block happens to me when I least expect it. Today was one of those days. I was reading articles about Internet safety hoping something would inspire me. After I realized that nothing would, I decided just to log into the blog site and start writing.

The funny thing about inspiration is it can come from the strangest places. The first thing that caught my eye when I opened our comments section was a word I would not use and would not want my child to hear. We were getting spam comments on this blog. Ironic that a blog devoted to keeping out porn and spam attracts it. It’s the same on our Twitter account. I have to delete several followers that are really just spammers and pornographers several times a week.

Sadly, if the spammers and pornographers were not having some success, they would quit doing it. For those who choose to keep their computers and Internet history free of this stuff, Kidsemail.org and MyKidsbrowser.com are great tools.

By the way, before i finished this blog another spammer left me a message.
