.Do you know where to find the most comprehensive accumulation of computer related
tips, techniques, tutorials, in-depth articles, and resources for and by blind or
visually impaired people?
Do you know who sponsors this collection and how long it has been in existence?
Do you know how to easily access this valuable resource manually or have it delivered
automatically to your computer?
For answers to these and many more questions, plan now to attend the next Tek Talk
online training session when Michael McCarty, Expert Database Coordinator of Fred’s
Head Database and Companion, will provide a brief historical overview of how the
American Printing House has been serving blind people for 150 years, changes that
are being made to aph.org website, and then a detailed discussion of Fred's Head
Database and evolution into the Fred's Head Companion blog. He will explain the differences
between the original database and the blog, and will then provide a description on
RSS, podcasting, and how individuals can receive posts from the Companion blog.
