Snippet | KidZui was a web browser designed for children developed by KidZui, Inc. The KidZui browser used a Zooming User Interface paradigm to make browsing easier for children.[1] Search results appeared as scaled down images of websites, videos, and pictures that children click on to zoom in and see content. Children can also browse by category without typing search terms. The KidZui browser did not access the open Internet. KidZui uses teachers and parents to screen content and maintains a database of approved URLs.[2] The KidZui browser could only access URLs in the approved database. Children built avatars called Zuis to represent themselves online.[3][4] They earned points for web browsing and used points to gain levels and buy clothes and accessories for their Zuis.[5] Children could share KidZui content with friends online.[6] To add a friend online, children needed to know the friends Zui name. There was no online directory of Zui names, so children needed to get their friends Zui names offline in order to add them. Friends also needed to be approved by parents before they become available in the browser. KidZui also tracked children’s Internet usage and sends reports to their parents on what their children looked at online.[7] |
