Of all the sites on the internet, this is one.
God, our poor little Great White North alumni chapter of GDB can’t win for losin’. It was founded last June and we’ve been trying to figure out a way to get the word out there that we exist. We eventually drafted up a little greeting message to send to the alumni news that is sent …

Jen sent me this sad bit of news the other day. But before I blogged about it, I wanted to assure myself that it was in fact a real and up to date story. If there’s anything I have learned from Snopes, it’s verify, verify, verify! Here’s the message I received, and then I’ll add …

I just have to write this quick post before I get a move on. Ok, so this morning, Steve woke up to find that his computer was acting like a dork. He couldn’t figure out why. We’re pretty sure that his USB keyboard has bitten the biscuit, but we’ll only know after we buy a …
Jen sent me this request for participation on how us blinks get around, so I figured I would put it up here so anyone who is interested could participate. It doesn’t appear to have a deadline, and I think at least everybody in North America could participate, as it says zip or postal code. The …

Well, on Friday I mentioned I was getting interviewed on CFRU. Here is the result. You can also go to the Royal City Rag website and click on past shows and listen via the little flash player thingy. But since it is encoded as opaque, us screenreader-users can’t click the buttons, so she was kind …
A while ago, I learned about this cool little weekly email called Accessibility News. I finally got subscribed, and what do I see in the first issue I receive? Something I didn’t know that is definitely useful to me! I learned where folks in Canada can send their Perkins Brailler! So, I figured I’d send …

Here’s some news. How much people like hearing my voice will decide whether it’s good or bad. Hahaha! I am getting interviewed by Jan Hall on CFRU tomorrow morning as part of the Royal City Rag show. Yup, little ol’ me will be on the radio for an interview! It’ll be in the second hour …
