Include extensive list of Church sites

Yes we could do that. Please PM me with your link ideas. We will review and make a place where people can find these links.

Good idea.

While many of these sites provide helpful, useful content and services, don't assume that they are all good and should be perpetuated and enhanced. Some have functionalities that the Church has intentionally chosen not to pursue because they "go beyond the mark" or put the Church and its members at risk. For example, sites that consolidate or restructure membership data from the Stake and Ward Web Sites may be in violation of the terms of use and/or privacy policies. Some sites that assist in preparing lessons may link to content that has unverified sources or urban legends, or simply get the teacher way off track of the point of the lesson. Sites that assist in tracking Duty to God or Young Women Personal Progress awards may risk exposure of sensitive information about youth.

I'm not trying to squelch good ideas--just pleading for all to use common sense.

We'd love it if you'd read Tom Welch's posts about current problems the Church is addressing. We'd love you to help us think through and build solutions to some of these issues.

This is why I want people to PM me instead of post their ideas here. By PM'ing me, we (the Church) will figure out if the site is OK for us to post. Technology web sites (which is what this whole site is about) are more likely to be posted than web sites to help you teach a lesson, for example. On our home page there is a "web links" section where we can put interesting links of a technology nature that we have pre-screened.

Thanks for the reinforcement!
