Rude Hey, don't be so rude. English isn't his first language. He wanted to show you by sending you an e-mail in ASL, his native language. No one should have to depend on people without disabilities. What I would suggest is ask if he has a videophone or webcam so you can talk to him and...

MAGPie True, it's kind of hard to add captions, when you don't know how. When I needed to do so, I found MAGPie quickly, via google search. It's a free program you can use, to add captions to your videos.

Oprah Oh, my friends and I had a good laugh, when we were watching Oprah. She announced, "Closed Captioning paid for my the makers of the following product," which was captioned, and then the commercials of that product had no captions! Get this, I even saw one commercial for a hearing aid...

I barely know any Deaf people who still use a TTY. Why keep a TTY anyway? Baduot is so slow, and you have to use "GA". A Hard-of-Hearing friend of mine got DSL and a videophone. I recently told him to ditch his TTY and get a CapTel. He traded his TTY in for a CapTel with his state's program. He...

Are sick and tired of watching the VLogs (Video Blogs) in ASL without captions? I sure am. You think that the Deaf community would be more attune to the needs of people with disabilities, but it seems that it's more of a double standard. Think about it. Deaf, Hard-of-Hearing, Latened Deafened...

Hey guys/gals, I'm Taric, and I've browsed AllDeaf for a while now, but I haven't started posting until now. I grew up Hearing, but when I was about 5 I noticed a ringing in my ears, especially at bed time. I figured since I was the only one who could hear it, it must just be my imagination...

Yeah, I'm on. I hope I can move my location, because when I tried to edit it, it said try again in 20 secods... over and over again.

CapTel Ans Mach It's easy to use any answering machine with your CapTel. Your answering machine should be a voice answering machine. You can also use a TTY/Voice answering machine, if TTY users and/or VCO users call you without relay, however, if you do not have a TTY/Voice answering...

Understanding Ok, my understanding of this is pretty simple. If you are a Deaf person, who does not speak and uses Sign Language, and you want to call a Hearing person, you can use your Videophone or Webcam to call VRS to call a Hearing person. The Deaf person signs, and the interpreter...

If you have a speech disability (You have difficulty speaking.) (STS): French-to-French Voice: Call the toll-free number for French relay in your/his/her state, and ask for STS. Tell the CA (Communication Assistant) the number of the person you want to call, and tell the CA you have a speech...

There doesn't seem there's enough information about French relay, so I thought I'd post some. I'll discuss two ways to use French relay: Traditional TRS (Telecommunications Relay Service) and IP-Relay TRS. TRS If you are Hearing (You hear and speak.) (Voice): French-to-French Voice: Pick...
