As I’ve mentioned in previous entries, it’s quite an awesome task trying to reduce a person’s entire Internet use over a week’s time down to one number between 0 and 5, but basically that’s what we try to do with our ‘Quick Look.’
The algorithm that accomplishes this takes into account the scores of sites you [...]
This post has been a long time in the making. When Breaking Free went live back in the beginning of January one of my first posts responded to one Christian’s negative opinion of accountability software. I didn’t realize then what I know now: there are more detractors in the Christian community than I first thought.

I recently received this email in my inbox from one of our Covenant Eyes members:
Hello,
My name is Brian and I have been using covenant eyes for about 3 years now. I have found the program to be invaluable for protecting my integrity online. It was so freeing to know that I was being [...]
Sometimes, what seems like a brilliant idea loses its luster the more people that see it. Our Report Rating - the large number that appears at the top of our new report format - was just such an idea.
We thought it would be great to have a summary number at the top of the report [...]
Porn Sunday. Porn and Pancakes. Porn Pastors. These are some of the buzz words associated with the ministry of XXXchurch.
