So what's in it for the kids? |
 |
Ben
collects cds. Lots of them. He likes to be able
to catalogue them, and write reviews of his latest
acquisitions.
Tara
keeps a journal. Two in fact: a public one for general
consumption, and a private one.
Katie
rescues many of her drawings from the bin, and has
learned how to scan them and store them herself! |

Who are the Nelsons?
The Nelsons live in Webchester. Northington.
Neither Sally nor Dave used their home PC much until
LifeThemes came along, and sometimes used to wonder
why they had bought it. They've been delighted to
find they can now link their diaries, their photos
and information about all the people, places, and
events in their lives. |

LifeThemes helps them:
Keep on top all the different activities they
and the children are involved in
Plan complex activities, such as holidays
Take full advantage of all their new digital
photographs
Reduce clutter: it is easy to store and find
records
Best of all, record their lives as they unfold
He lives some distance from the rest of the family,
so when they get together, it is great to be able
to see slideshows of the latest family events,
and the kids like to send him CD's containing
slideshows
of some of their exploits. Like a letter, but
better! |
And why's Laurence so keen?
|
Laurence
is Sally's dad. He leads a busy life although
he's retired, but he enjoys spending time constructing
his Lifeline,
which he says keeps him out of mischief.
