ThisMoment: Family album 2.0? | Webware Former CNET exec Vince Broady launched on Tuesday ThisMoment, a new social publishing service designed to collect and save personal and family memories, or "moments." I found it an attractive and enjoyable service to use. But its feature set is ambitious, and there's a big question of whether it can succeed in a market already flooded with social publishing services. ThisMoment creates little self-contained items made up of text, media files, people, places, and links. To make a moment, you just type in a little emotional impression and how it made you feel (e.g., "happy"), then you add your media. You can also invite people into a moment so they can work on it with you. Each moment gets its own privacy level. ThisMoment content looks great. So we've established that moments are easy to create, and fun to read. As far as integrating into existing services, ThisMoment has all the features checked off. The financial question is more interesting for this service. See also Lilgrams.

Get Outside National Wildlife Federation has worked to connect children and youth with nature for decades, inspiring children through Ranger Rick magazine, working with educators to get kids learning outdoors, and helping parents find new ways to engage their children outside. Today, the amount of time kids spend outside is alarmingly low--only minutes per day--while screen time is at an all time high (upwards of seven hours). NWF has set a new goal to stem the tide and move kids back outdoors: Help NWF Get 10 Million Kids Outdoors! How Are We Tackling This Goal?
