Press release as of 10.Apr.2010 :
TheSkyKid.com, a site that focuses on coming of age movies and young talent in music and the performing arts, has observed significant growth since its launch back in 2006. Each day, the site receives an average of 3000 daily visitors from 198 different countries in the world (out of these, 192 are recognized by the United Nations).
In recent years, the site has received media attention from the film and the music industries which allowed its authors to provide exclusive interviews with movie directors such as Stephen Ryder, Connor Clements, Lasse Nielsen, Frank Vitale and singers such as Vlad Krutskikh, Antonio Jose and Brendan Macfarlane.
In addition to the usual reviews of films and youthful musicians which has been the staple of this site from its inception, since last Fall the site has been documenting the phenomenal growth of the Elton John/Lee Hall production of Billy Elliot the Musical as that show has grown from a London beginning to Australia, Broadway and Chicago and soon to several other countries. Several articles profile all the current Billys in those productions as well as highlight many other aspects of the show.
Another exciting new addition to the site are the regular contributions of several guest authors who provide different perspectives on a variety of topics.
“We are excited about the increased interest in theskykid.com, and hope people take the time to read the articles on the site and post comments or questions they may have.” – said the site Administrator.

Frequently Asked Questions
How can I get my avatar to appear in the comments section and across the blog ?
TheSkyKid.com is gravatar enabled site, so all you need to do is to register an e-mail address at Gravatar and then associate an image with it. It’s quite easy and, after doing that, your avatar will appear every time you use the email you signed up for at any site ( not just theSkyKid.com). A short description from the Gravatar’s web site :
“A gravatar, or globally recognized avatar, is quite simply an image that follows you from site to site appearing beside your name when you do things.”
Do you have a comment policy ?
Yes, in fact, we do and it’s quite straight forward. First, we love comments on this site. They are as important to us as anything written in any article on the site. They add to the knowledge of the community that we have here. That being said, sometimes comments have to be moderated in order to keep TheSkyKid.com a family friendly website. Spam comments are deleted as soon as they appear on the site. If you want to link relevant resources to the topic you comment on – feel free to do that – it adds to the conversation and improves this site. However, all irrelevant links will simply be erased as they don’t add any value to the content of the article. And that’s the extent of the comments policy .
Why do you have ads on your site?
The short answer is: to cover the costs of running it — to pay for the hosting and the domain. So far, that sum isn’t huge – and the hope is that the ads will help cover those costs.
I’d like to leave a comment but I don’t want to give away my e-mail address!
Your e-mail address will never be published. But if you don’t want to enter your actual address, just make up one like “JohnSmith@mail.com”. But you do have to insert your real mail address if you want to get notified about replies to your comment via mail.
