For children, the web IS the computer…

August 2nd, 2006

a girl I know told me a stroy about her young son. He uses the computer to browse and email. He is 6 years old.

She told me ‘he thinks eveything is a website’. She told me that he and his father spend some time on the computer last weekend. Then the boy came up to her, blushing with pride, and told her:

‘Dad showed me the Word website. I can write stuff in there’

He meant Microsoft Word. I wonder if Microsoft is ready for the future.
