News is so scattered form all directions, I thought I would place everything that is swimming around in my brain into one place. Rather than forcing myself to write a long post that may never get completed, this seems like the best way to disseminate a lot of information very quickly and easily.
Joe Clark comments on Amazon’s need for “hard evidence” to support accessibility. Joe nails it, as usual.

PowerPoint extension with text-to-speech capability, Tuval. Now I don’t have to speak at seminars, I can let this software read my speaker notes and just handle the Q&A. Seriously, this is a great extension for those who would like to have a copy of the PowerPoint presentation and not just the visual slides. However, I don’t know many other speakers on my circuit that use their speaker notes function. I can see a lot of future in this, as websites can enable people to download presentations to assist on software troubleshooting, set-up, or many other applications that can be presented effectively in both visual and descriptive text/speech.
