Best yet, setting up is as easy as dragging the file or folder onto the Share files pane of the main window.

    Edit icon

    Jot down notes

    Share comes with it’s own kind of wiki that lets you and others connected to your share create, write, and collaborate on text files.

You’re in complete control with Share.

    It’s Fun

    Kidwidget isn’t your average one-trick-pony children’s program.
    This exciting new version offers tons of activities that have been specifically designed for children, all rolled up into an easy-to-use, family-friendly interface.

    It’s Safe

    Computers (Especially Macs!) are excellent learning tools for kids, unfortunately they can also be dangerous. Even if supervised – inappropriate content, unsuitable material, and endless frustration – are real issues that parents must deal with every time their children uses a computer. Not to mention accidental deletion of your own important files…kids seem to find great enjoyment upon dragging things into the Mac’s amusing Trash Can.

    With Kidwidget, parents decide how much security to use. Children will not be able to force-quit (command-option-escape), switch applications (command-tab), or even use Exposé to exit Kidwidget. A user-definable Parent Password is needed to change settings and quit Kidwidget. Features such as Printing can also be disabled…many kids love to print 100 copies of everything, just to watch the paper fly out.

    It’s time for parents to feel safe again. Let Kidwidget help your children get the benefits that computers offer, while minimizing the risk.

    New in Kidwidget 2:

    • Mac Universal Application.
    • Use your Apple iSight to take photos, then paint on them (Built-in iSight viewer, no outside program needed).
    • Enhanced Flashcards for easy studying.
    • Considerably more secure.
    • An analog clock (Yep, those old ones with the hands that tick) to help them learn to tell time.
    • Better parental controls, improved printing, and lots more.

    System Requirements:

    • Mac OS X 10.3 (or later, including Tiger)
    • Universal Application (Works with Intel and PowerPC Macs)
