Wee Web: Facebook for Baby
October 28th 2008 by Dr.MOZ in New Parents, Tech and Web 
When I first heard about the new online service Wee Web, I was quick to dismiss it as another online scrapbook. After receiving a few answers from someone at Wee Web, I learned that it would be better described as a Facebook for parents. Wee-Web.com’s features in a nutshell:
- Parents can share with the family and friends they invite, so only those with permission can can see the content
- Your content could include pictures, videos, and/or a quick note
- A micro-blogging feature notifies the parents’ network when the child’s page is updated
- Family and friends can control how frequently they are notified about updates
- It’s currently free for new users
I’ve got to say, the Wee Web team could be onto something here. Not every burp or gurgle justifies a detailed explanation, but you can bet that grandma and grandpa want to see the new gurgle video. A small Twitter-like caption will do the
job for many of your baby pictures, and crazy Uncle Dave will appreciate the fact that Wee Web gives him control of how many baby update notices he receives. It’s a low-pressure service for busy parents who may not have time to write lengthy blogs, and a no-pressure way for friends and family to take part on their own time line.
Is anyone out there in Mozville already using Wee Web? If so, please click on the comment bubble to share your Wee Web review.
Have fun and stay healthy,

I’m sure this place will be a good place for a parents community. What else do parents like to do beside telling about their children and showing their children photos to other people.

I am very thankful for Wee Web. We have family spread across the world (USA, New Zealand and the United Kingdom) and Wee Web has given us the ability to keep in touch and share family photos. It’s very easy to use…I mean even my grandmother can use it!! Highly recommended.
