Most recently, I added an integrated web browser that can access a controlled list of URLs.

Shuttle has evolved into a very stable and essentially maintenance-free program launcher. Daniel and Thomas use it to access their games, learning programs and web sites with no intervention from us for weeks on end. We know what they’re playing, and the rest of the computer and Internet are for all practical purposes walled off from them.

Tangible Benefit
The three programming projects that have consumed the most time by far, are this web site, Soneta and Shuttle. They’ve all been a lot of fun, but Shuttle has been the most rewarding because it actually serves a purpose beyond my own self-indulgence. I think that on some level, Daniel is resistant to trying new things because he does not want to fail. His success with the computer has helped his confidence and broadened his learning horizons.

Of course now, like Daddy, he’s a bit of a computer addict, too.
