Hello Everyone,
The following is just a quick reminder:
The Apple App Store is home to thousands of wonderfully useful and creative programs that enhance and enrich the lives of hundreds of thousands of people around the world for as little as 99 cents American. But what if you are blind or low vision and in order to obtain an accessible version of the program, you must pay more than the standard cost?
Recently, a company called Essency, released a dazzlingly innovative and useful utility called Awareness, The Headphones App, that in effect allows you to listen to music and the outside world at the same time.
Currently, those using VoiceOver, Apple’s software screen reading solutions for the blind and low vision, must pay an additional cost in order to purchase the VoiceOver accessible user interface for the program.
Join me on the Secret Life of Mark Marcus on Friday, January 7, 2011 at 7:00pm (PST) when I will be interviewing the president of Essency, Mr. Alex Georgiou who has graciously agreed to accept questions from callers.
To listen to or participate in the live show call (724) 898-1193.
