Our ability to scan instant messenger (IM) conversations in real time, and look for predator issues, sets us apart from other competing products. We don’t seek to spy on your children.

At the end of the day, we want kids to support this product. If you want to spy on them, this is not the right product. If you want to give them room to grow and mature, and be there when they get into trouble, this is the perfect product for you.

Saw this on another ScobleShow video the other night, and it seems a good idea. IMSafer is a new product to help parents feel safer about their kids’ IM usage.

What seemed interesting (and promising) is that it does not try to block or prevent IM usage, but rather to (fairly unobtrusively) monitor for specific predator-like conversation pieces, and alert parents when these occur.

It’s a free service at the outset, but will later have levels of service charges based on number of IM screen-names monitored and usage of basic or premium-level services etc.
