See, this is one of the very coolest things about this new wave of internet companies. They are focused on providing real value, real content to us and our kids. Take a look at YackPack and what they’re doing in that space:
This week my team learned about an online math program for gifted kids that uses YackPack to communicate. As we listened to some public yacks they’ve shared, we were amazed and amused. As 10-year-old voices explain solutions to tough math problems, it sounds like Einstein overdosing on helium.
I can’t recommend YackPack enough. It’s uber cool and BJ is a really nice guy (with a great idea that’s chugging along quite nicely). In the interest of transparency, I did a podcast with BJ several months ago.
