Microsoft's idea of Family Protection? Block Google

OpenDNS is a great way to filter content

I use http://www.opendns.com/ on all my networks.

It block sites right at the point where the lookup happens and you can configure it to select what kind of content to filter.

(And I'm not affiliated with them in any way, just happen to like it)

Interesting idea but a very dumb implementation

The idea that an URL could deliver contact information that then gets updated automatically in other people's databases/phones/Outlook/... is an interesting one.

But the idea that you have to do this on the .tel domain on their terms is a dumb idea.

Instead why not allow any URL to host contact information and just define the XML format that needs to be delivered at that URL. So I can put, say www.linkedin.com/myname/contact on my business card and anyone can plug that into their contact manager to get all of the information I allow them to see.
