Hi Linda thanks for flagging this resource. My students really enjoyed exploring the teeth and eating section during a recent science unit. Hope you are well.

Hi,

My name is Rajendran Dandapani, and I represent ToonDoo, from Jambav.

We have been pleasantly surprised by the reception from the Teaching Community worldwide, and take the aspect of inappropriate visual and textual content at ToonDoo really seriously.

We have already put in an “mark as inappropriate” feature, and as many as 45 toons were removed from public view over the last few days.

Like any social networked, crowd-powered tool, the small team at ToonDoo believes, trusts, and depends on the global community at large to tend to the beauty and purity of content at ToonDoo. Very soon after a particular Toon is marked as inappropriate, we promise that it will be taken off view.

Meanwhile, we have also put in a “Safe Search” Feature, like Google’s SafeSearch. While registering (or later), you can specify your preferences to allow you to view inappropriate content or not. If you say NO to it, you will never ever see content marked as inappropriate.

We would love this tool to be used by children and teachers and parents worldwide, for meaningful fun and educational entertainment. If the vulgar possibilities inherent in any such online tool become too much to handle, we will obviously lean towards the children community, and just put in a “ALWAYS MODERATE BEFORE PUBLISH” restriction.

So, no need to worry. Please use ToonDoo, and increase our trust and faith in the predominance of GOOD in the community.

Thanks.

Rajendran.
