i tried emailing megan@twit.tv as you have on your contact link and it is bouncing back to me....

i remember on a jumping monkeys episode ages ago you recommended or mentioned a website that lets you track chores and / or pocket money for your kids.
i've searched and cannot find it.
i was hoping you could let me know.

Great podcast. The Instant Amber service sounds well worth it. I like that it forces you to be organized and prepared and should you child go missing you can give law enforcement privilege to information.

What was Leo talking about early in the podcast about a thumb drive child safety service?

Also checkout what your state may be offering. In NY we have Operation Safe Child and the State Troopers often have booths setup at local events to register your child for free. They fingerprint, measure, weigh, and photograph your kids for free. The info is stored by the state until they are 18 and they give you 2 ID cards to carry with you. The service is tied to Amber Alert and can be used to get info out on your kids within minutes.
