maryland company wants to keep google away from the children

reaching? opportunistic?

“We want them staying out of the children’s space,” [Steven] Esrig [head of Stelor Productions Inc.] said. “Anything that could potentially be a children’s item as far as I’m concerned is legally ours.”

that’s staking out some pretty big turf for a little company with seven full-time employees, but i’m all about thinking big, so you go, guys.

Esrig said he wants to coexist with Google and has suggested that Googles.com become the children’s arm of the search engine company. “The ‘s’ could be for ‘safety,’ ” he said.

that’s an interesting poposition…

it’ll be interesting to see how the soon-to-ipo, don’t-be-evil google responds. so far, they haven’t.
