(Or hey, maybe we can finally get Pat to stop playing Generals, eh? Just kidding!)

I thought our clients might find this one handy and interesting, though. What we have here is kidoff, a free-to-use, cross-platform internet control application. You can use this software to measure how long they've been using the internet, and when it's almost time to wrap it up, send them a notification window or audible message over the network.

Here's the kicker. It also allows some you to geekily harass your child by making their online experience, well, not so much fun. You can deallocate usage of their RAM or disk space from normal access so the computer starts to run slower, or even SHUT OFF the computer from the other room, using the simple web interface. Never, ever get in a hollering match again!
