Time Management
To block or not to block, that is the question.
Sites and services such as facebook, youtube, gaming and others are generally harmless from a content perspective. The challenge for most people is managing access times. All night gaming sessions or 5 hours on Facebook, chatting and "YouTubing" during homework times are fairly common place and encroach on relationships and responsibilities in the offline world.
The unavoidable fact of the Internet is that time spent online is time lost offline. Conforming Internet access times to the schedules and commitments of the real world is a problem. Webshield's time based filtering is the solution.
Facebook and YouTube have their time and place but most parents would agree that this is not during homework time.
With Webshield's time based filtering, you can have what you want, when you want it and how long you want it for.
Examples of time based filtering
Example 1 Facebook, YouTube and Instant Messaging blocked during homework times 4 – 6pm
Example 2 Online gaming available only on Saturday morning between 6am and 12pm
Example 3 The Internet to be locked down during the evening and turned off after midnight.
Time spent online is time lost offline. Webshield helps you to achieve the right balance for you and your family.
