25.01.2022 Study finds people addicted to the net show similar withdrawal symptoms to people addicted to drugs. http://www.swansea.ac.uk//studyfindsinternetaddictscansuff

24.01.2022 If you missed my interview this morning, here is the link... http://au.tv.yahoo.com//vi/watch/21108571/digital-dangers/

24.01.2022 Do you think mobile phones are really the latest gaming device? Do you think that phone development will continue to head in this direction?

23.01.2022 Interesting and easy read. For e.g. "a long-term study group in Britain that has been following 19,000 children born in 2000 and 2001, found that those who watched more than three hours of television, videos or DVDs a day had a higher chance of conduct problems, emotional symptoms and relationship problems by the time they were 7". Thoughts? http://m.smh.com.au//the-truth-about-kids-and-touch-screen

23.01.2022 Some people argue that the net, especially social media, is developing 'the young generation' into a group of people with short attention spans that need immediate gratification to complete things. What do you think?

23.01.2022 Thanks to Jessica Turner for the Channel Ten News interview.http://tenplay.com.au//national/2014/7/6/addicted-to-gaming

22.01.2022 Thoughts? "Sin tax" on video games http://www.humanevents.com//sin-tax-on-violent-video-game/

22.01.2022 Thanks to Paul Lister for inviting me to speak at The Scots College. I'm looking forward to helping the parents and students!

21.01.2022 It seems StarCraftt players ability to multi-task is getting attention. http://www.readcube.com/articles//scientificamerican0212-21

21.01.2022 Just came across this vid on a Chinese boot camp for people hooked on video games. Thoughts? Certainly the video doesn't show the clinic in a positive light. For example, hearing parents being lectured on children feeling lonely then seeing them literally locked away in the clinics facility. Also, the clinic accepting a mother who drugged and transported her son to the clinic who was then kept against his will. It would be good to know the full story. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jqctG3NnDa0

20.01.2022 Thanks to Sarah McDonald from ABC702 for the radio interview this morning on exploring excessive software use for school students while on holiday.

11.01.2022 Thanks to the Newsroom for the interview. A very important topic indeed. http://newsroom.macleay.net/twelve-year-olds-betting-in-on/

10.01.2022 Hi all, I got this request from ABC's 4 Corners. It will be a great chance to have a say! "ABC Television is looking to speak with kids and teenagers about how they feel about the world and their place in it. The idea is to hang out with kids of different ages and backgrounds to get their ... perspective. In the media, there tends to be a lot of talking about kids but not a lot of talking with kids. This show is designed to give them a voice. We also want to know what's worrying kids and teenagers about the world and their immediate environment. The age range is from early primary up to around year 11. If you are interested - or you know someone who may be interested - please contact Joel Tozer at [email protected]"
