Internet security company VeriSign and government-funded non-profit i-Safe America have launched a new technology to make it safer for kids to be online. 
In the early going, school children in about a dozen cities across the country will be using the i-STIK (PDF), a small device the plugs into a computer's USB port. The i-STIK confirms the user's identity, making it harder for a predator to deceive children.
