Hi folks,
Sorry for the cross post, but I was asked to get the word out on
this event. Please read below for details and contact information.
For more than 20 years, Apple has provided new and innovative
solutions for people with disabilities. In April of 2005, Apple
created VoiceOver, a full-featured screen reading technology for the
visually impaired which provides full keyboard control of the computer
along with spoken audio descriptions. Since then, VoiceOver has become
the most widely available and affordable screen reader on the market.
On Thursday January twenty second from 6: PM to 8: pM Visions Services
for the blind located at 135 West 23rd street in New York City will be
presenting Using Mac Applications with VoiceOver. During this
presentation we will explore How VoiceOver assists blind and visually
impaired users in performing activities such as sending and receiving
E-Mail, searching for information on the Internet, writing documents
and more.
This is a free event however registration is encouraged. During the
registration process you will be asked to complete a brief survey.
The information you provide will help us taylor the event to the type
of audience participating. Also, a complimentary resource CD will be
made available only to those tho complete the survey and registration.
