    Tampa woman is deaf, nearly blind, with will of Superwoman

    What an amazing story! She is great when it comes to getting around. I've been to Helen Keller National Center during Summer 2002 right after I graduate with a special diploma from Florida School for the Deaf and Blind. After I got off from Helen Keller National Center, I went into Daytona...

    Prototype Affordable Braille Display

    Now that you mentioned the word "fragile," I did a Google search and came up with this: Low Cost Braille I did not know they are very fragile until I read the article. Update: About the affordable note takers, I thought it might be interesting to just take the netbook (8.9" ones), take the...

    Anyone for a Glasser extension for Firefox?

    :) Oh, I should've posted in the Pictures/Videos section of the forum, so I didn't think the first time when I post my screenshot about the picture of Firefox using a Glasser extension.

    Looking For A Forum For Those Who Are Blind

    BlindWorld.FreeForums.org appears to be done without any reason why... I think the last time the forum appeared to be down is they seem to change the look of the theme and then add back the generic theme to the forum.

    "Going In Blind Doesn't Help": Cues For Navigation

    W3C works very well with the screen reader. But if you're referring to eye-candy: If you do put a lot of eyecandy (I'm talking about the ones with slicky borders, glossy-looking buttons, shadows under text, etc.) into a website while making your website accessible at the same time, then yes, it...

    Looking For A Forum For Those Who Are Blind

    Might be better if you provide a link, but I'll do a search. Update (Quick Search in Google): Okay, I found this: http://community.livejournal.com/deafblind/ To me, this is more of a blog instead of the forum. I'm used to navigating a forum.

    "Going In Blind Doesn't Help": Cues For Navigation

    In general, web designers should take a look at this: WAI Guidelines and Techniques You can put a lot of eye-candy into a website as much as you want, but you've got to take into consideration when making your website accessible for the blind.

    Guess what

    This thread is so stupid... It gets a 1 out of 5 star rating for placing this thread in a wrong forum. I'm sorry, but this thread has no place in the forum (I'm not a moderator, though).

    No. He meant that Linux has Orca.

    I thought you might want to try out Orca under Ubuntu. Does RiscOS 4 came with Orca?

    Looking For A Forum For Those Who Are Blind

    Hi. I'm looking for a forum that is blind-related, just like AllDeaf. I know I can do a Google search for myself, but I just got tired looking through the Internet to see if there's any weather-related websites that are way less complex than Weather.com and AccuWeather.com. Browsing through a...

    "Going In Blind Doesn't Help": Cues For Navigation

    Hi everyone! I found some information when it comes to those who are sightless (blind -- those who can't see) and when it comes to major issues with accessing websites such as weather.com. Here's the PDF (Portable Document Format): http://www.xeroday.com/portfolio/UPA2004_paper_final.pdf When...

    I'm glad to dig them up. I'll keep searching for more results that talk about affordable braille display. The information out there can be quite scarce.

    focus on high-tech for deaf

    I currently have Sprint with my Samsung Ace and I'd like to see the price of the data plan go down -- perhaps about $30 to $0 a month, but I'd like to see the price get down to $30. I'd also like to see smartphones have two SIM card slots. One for data and one for voice. This allows those of...

    Prototype Affordable Braille Display

    I found another one: NFB-RD: Fwd: More Affordable Braille Displays Coming I have high interests in affordable braille display. I think this could be suitable for netbooks, as I currently have an Acer Aspire One AOA150, which is pre-installed with Windows but replaced with Linux (Ubuntu 8.10).
