Safer Internet Day 2012 by NeelieKroesEU

Tomorrow, Tuesday 7 February, in 70 countries and 6 continents, it’s Safer Internet Day 2012. Across Europe, events are happening from quizzes and competitions to radio marathons.

I want everyone getting involved - generations connecting, parents talking to children and children to their parents (and grandparents!). So people aren’t afraid to ask each other openly, “how was your online day today”?

I know that, by making the most of everyone’s technical know-how and life experience, and by ensuring a few easy-to-use tools, we can make sure everyone has a safe and fun time online, from the young to the less-young of us.

For more info about what’s going on, see a full list here or check out the Twitter tag #SID2012. But whatever you’re doing for Safer Internet Day, I wish a safe & fun online experience for you, your kids and your parents, today and in the future!
