  • Creating your own Safe Search – A call to teachers!

    Date: 2010.08.29 | Category: google, ICT, Primary School, Primary School ICT, Safe Search

    Searchy Pants is a new exciting way for schools and parents to create their own safe search home page.

    We focused on three main benefits:

    1. Include your family/schools branding/logo
    2. Include a message to your kids/pupils/teachers
    3. Include useful links

    We kept the admin interface as simple as possible (Just 3 pages and a wizard style setup)

    Please do sign up and test it, we are happy with it so far but we know that feedback over the next few months will get us to a point where we can do a formal launch to all schools.

    We kept Searchy Pants as safe as possible with various bits I will talk about in the future, most of you will be aware of the Safe Search engine we have maintained for the last 4 years with great success.

    SearchyPants is pronounced – Ser Chee Pants  - Like SmartyPants but that domain was gone :P

    Thanks to Matt Lovegrove for the testing so far.  If you think Searchy Pants is a good idea then please share it!
