Disney has just acquired Togetherville, a social network for kids 10 years of age or younger, we’ve confirmed with the company. Togetherville, which exited beta last year, mimics the experience of adult social networking sites, i.e. Facebook but in an age-appropriate and parent-monitored environment. Togetherville promises a safer, more secure environment, where parents can moderate who their children are connecting with. Parents approve each of their child’s friends, and can also connect with other parents using Facebook’s social graph.
Terms of the acquisition are not being disclosed.
