Susan Pink is the editor of this book and a collaborator in other projects as well. Her keenness, careful reading, and incisive comments shine through every paragraph . except for the extra chapter I slipped in at the last second. You’ll know it when you see it. Besides being an unusually fine editor who makes me look a lot better than I would without her, Susan has a gift for remaining calm during the most intense deadline crises. She also laughs at all the right times. Colin Banfield had the challenging job of technical editor. His insights were invaluable. Many thanks to Tom Stocky at Google for his unflinching willingness to answer my seemingly endless, detailed questions. Melody Layne at Wiley Publishing nursed this project from the start, getting it off the ground quickly and helping shape its focus. I’m very thankful. Mary Corder pulled me into the For Dummies family several years ago, and is, by now, sick of seeing her name pop up in my acknowledgments. But I am for- ever grateful, so she’ll have to deal with it. Many thanks to all the copy editors and production experts who pored over every page of the manuscript. Finally, I’d like to thank the Pulitzer Committee for this fine honor. Oops . that speech is from an alternate reality. 01_599305_ffirs.qxd 7/15/05 6:50 PM Page viii Publisher’s Acknowledgments We’re proud of this book; please send us your comments through our online registration form located at www.dummies.com/register/.

  • PDF a Parent and Carer's Guide to Google Safesearch and Youtube Safety Mode
    A parent and carer’s guide to Google SafeSearch and YouTube Safety Mode Google is the most used search engine in the world and users can type in a word, expression, phrase or sentence in more than 100 languages and receive instant results in text, images or videos. YouTube is ranked as the world second largest search engine, with over 1 billion users that each day watch a billion hours of videos. With limited ways to control content, the Google and YouTube platforms can be challenge for parents and carers because there are hundreds of thousands of videos, images and other content that may not be considered appropriate for children or young people. This article explains why it may be useful to filter search results on Google and YouTube and how parents and carers can engage safety settings on these two platforms. Please note – the weblinks in this document are only available in English language. Is Google content appropriate for children and young people? A Google query lasts less than half a second, however there are many more steps involved before a final result is provided. This video from Google illustrates exactly how a Google search works. When Google realized that the results of an unfiltered Google search contained content that is not always appropriate for children, Google then developed SafeSearch so that children could safely find documents, images, and videos within the Google database. Is YouTube content appropriate for children and young people? Google purchased YouTube in 2006 with the idea that YouTube would provide a marketing hub as more viewers and advertisers chose the Internet over television.

Shri.S.S Khera, ICS, the then Cabinet Secretary, Government of India, had conceived the idea of a research institution that would undertake a systematic and sustained study of issues relevant to the formulation of policies towards public enterprises. In the early sixties, when PEs were designed as the principal instrument to serve the social and economic objectives of development, Shri. Khera felt that there was need for an institute which would collect relevant information and documents on PEs, study specific issues and undertake consultancy and training exclusively for PEs. Dr.V.V. Ramanadham, the then Professor and Head of the Department of Commerce, Osmania University, translated Shri Khera’s concept into a reality that is IPE, with the active support and guidance provided by the late Dr. D. S Reddy, then Vice-Chancellor, Osmania University as an autonomous, non-profit society at the initiative of the then Cabinet Secretary to the Government of India, Shri S.S.Khera, ICS, and late Dr.D.S.Reddy, Vice-Chancellor of Osmania University.
