One thing to keep in mind when you're dealing with any information from kids under 13, in case you aren't already aware:

Children's Online Privacy Protection Act of 1998

"The statute and rule apply to commercial Web sites and online services directed to, or that knowingly collect information from, children under 13. To inform parents of their information practices, these sites will be required to provide notice on the site and to parents about their policies with respect to the collection, use and disclosure of children's personal information. With certain statutory exceptions, sites will also have to obtain 'verifiable parental consent' before collecting, using or disclosing personal information from children."

It's a little unclear if your project is a specific school project or if it is for an Internet Web site. So, depending on your situation, just be careful.

Updated: ...if you live in the U.S. Thanks, cLive ;-). MS hasn't released 'World Government XP' yet. Resistance is futile. The claw is my master.
