The images looks neat but the stories are a little bit too simple/shallow aren't they? Another thing. Don't you have a bad feeling uploading images of your kids, conveniently tagged with their age, to a random web service tha

I teach kids from 6 to 12 years with Scratch (and other tools) in my spare time. If you are a developer you should try it out. It's amazing how creative kids are with a tool like Scratch. My programming career started with Flash 4 and
