PHOENIXVILLE PA – A free workshop intended to help parents track their young children using the global positioning satellite (GPS) capabilities of cellular phones, will be held Oct. 28 (2010; Thursday) beginning at 7 p.m. in the Phoenixville Public Library, 183 Second Ave., Phoenixville PA.
- This event has been added to The Post calendar.
Such services are available from cell phone carriers without the need for additional equipment. Parents can track their kids between school and home, and verify their whereabouts at the home of a friend.
The seminar is sponsored by the TriCounty Community Network, a Pottstown-based organization of health care providers and health-related groups. For more information on the session, or to make a reservation, call Mark Pinto at 610-933-3013 Ext. 32.

I wish I lived nearby as this would be a great workshop to attend.
I’m in the process of evaluating a number of child tracking technologies for my two children, and I’m posting information from my experiences in my own weblog. I have recently posted a couple of articles about child tracking by parents in schools (not necessarily welcomed by teachers), and by schools themselves (not necessarily welcomed by parents).
I hope to do some feature reviews soon and would love any feedback from people who attend this lecture!
