Lately, I’ve gotten into the habit of sharing links with my children via email. I’ve always shared with them but usually just when we’re all in front of my laptop. Links get saved to Delicious and tagged as “kids” but I wanted to see if we could get more out of the experience by having a dialog. So far, I have to prompt them to read it and comment back to me. We’ll see how this social experiment goes. In the meantime, here’s some of what I’ve shared:

• Khan Academy—kids learn computer science—fun, interactive, collaborative, visual, via @grigs
• The Creativity of Indie Video Games | Off Book | PBS, via @pbs
• Street Ghosts—Google Maps inspired street art, via @adactio
• Guerilla Sculpture—with blue butterflies, via @themaninblue
• Ostrich Pillow—a micro environment for a power nap, via @wilto
• Acoustic Gangnum Stlyle—better than the original, via @MattWilcox

Some more interesting video (not shared with the kids):

• The Art of Web Design | Off Book | PBS via @pbs
• The Machine that Changed the World: The World at Your Fingertips | Episode 5 | History of Computers | PBS broadcast in 1992, this episode covers the internet. Fascinating considering Mosaic v1 was released in 1993, via waxpancake
