missing kids screensaver...

i was reading a few articles on cnn.com last week and ran across one that really interested me, as i thought it was a great idea. take the old "missing children" thing that we used to see all over milk cartons, make it a downloadable screensaver that is updated regularly, help find more missing kids. sounds like a great idea to me, so i thought i would share. the screensaver was developed by Global Software Applications, in cooperation with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC).



here is how it works. you go to www.missingkidsaver.com and download the screensaver for free. when your screensaver pops up, it cycles through missing children profiles. it is tailored to your area, so you shouldn't see profiles for children missing in alaska, for instance. it uses your internet connection to gather the latest information so it is always up-to-date. see their FAQ page here for more details.

the program takes seconds to download with hi-speed internet and another few seconds to install. give it a try and let me know what you think.
