[Lisa Yayla]

Hi,

Link to Jim Fruchterman's blog about the Diagram Center.
In it gives some information about the image description web tool called
Poet.

"I saw an initial demonstration of a web-based image description tool, called Poet. This makes it possible for people describing graphics (publisher production people, illustrators, alternative media producers like Benetech, and volunteers) to work from a standard web browser and interactively add image descriptions to DAISY books. The described book can then be re-published and made available to users who wish to have image descriptions voiced by digital talking book software tools or players, or have the descriptions in Braille."
