Child-friendly search engine launched
The www.FragFinn.de site offers a mix of games, information and links to approved, children-friendly websites and is being promoted as a first in Europe.
The site was offering a guide to the Bundestag lower house of parliament as it went into operation.
Chancellor Angela Merkel said the site "doesn't just fine-comb the Internet", it would allow children to enter the online world in complete safety.
The government is financing the site to the tune of 1.5 million euros (2.2 million dollars) and has developed the project in conjunction with big names from the Internet world such as AOL, Microsoft, Google, Lycos, Vodafone and Deutsche Telekom.
