Beta-Testers Wanted! New PBS KIDS Site About Technology and Media

Our friends at WGBH have asked us to check out their brand new site for PBS KIDS, produced by GeekDad’s very own Bill Shribman.

It’s a pilot project at pbskids.org/ruff and it stars Ruff Ruffman of FETCH! with Ruff Ruffman. But it’s not FETCH – it’s a new site for kids and parents about media and technology. The GeekDad and GeekMom blogs have offered to push this out to all of you to jump in, to poke about, and to let WGBH know here – or through their site – what you think. And if you like it, they’re hoping you’ll share it also to get the word out.
