computers

Came upstairs tonight to fined EB and his mates sat watching stuff on YouTube. Not really a problem, but made me wonder what sort of stuff they get up to online.

Maybe I should set him up a user account on XP? Microsoft do a parental control thing which I'm assumign I could put on *his* account but disable on mine...

thoughts? opinions? suggestions?

I've done that *so* many times.

My mam just doesn't seem remotely interested in having any sort of computer. She quite likes text messages, on the basis that she's more likely to get one of them from me more often than a phone call, but computers? No. The only thing which *might* tempt her would be to get access to the latest photos of The Beans, but an occasional packet of hard-copy photos every other month or so seems to keep her perfectly happy.

My dad, however, would have *adored* the internet and computers and stuff. He'd be on IM or Skype every night whilst we played something like Warcraft, or be teaching himself Ruby or java or something. Or be getting arrested for hacking into the Pentagon. I miss him.
