About Our Site

FamilyComputing was formed to offer a unique reference point on how to have family fun whilst staying safe on computers.

Whether you're trying to balance the computing needs of a teenager and a toddler or looking for activities you can do as a family this site is packed with fact filled articles about how you and your family can make the most of your computer.

Starting from the very basics this site covers how to choose and set up your family computer, how to make sure that it's a positive addition to the family instead of an argument flashpoint, and how to make sure that your kids are getting the most out of it. We've also covered some of the most important security issues to protect you and your family from fraud, viruses and online predators.

But having a family computer isn't all about avoiding the possible problems so you'll also find some great ideas for activities you can do together - from figuring out how to make a photo slide show to building your own family website.

Getting a family computer can be a big step but the articles you'll find here should answer most of your questions, and if you have a question that's still bothering you, let us know and we'll do our best to answer it for you.
