<p class="MsoNormal">NFBLive is usable by all who want to participate if you have a computer, and it works on a Windows or Mac platform. Unless it has changed the apps for I devices aren’t as good as they could be, but it is being worked on. You need a microphone;
most laptops have them built in. You have to download a small program and once you are enrolled in the program you are offered the opportunity to painlessly download that software. Apparently, the Kansas affiliate did not pay for their room because it is no
longer listed, but you can still use the site. I don’t know what you have to do to use the event center or learning room. You all could subscribe and try out some games and the like, and there are beginning to be other programs. Michael Hingson is going to
be speaking next Monday, and tomorrow night they are having a program in general on the memorial of September 11, 2001.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">On Tuesday nights we have a chat from 7-8 at Bob and Cindy’s room on there, but anyone can come visit us to see what it is like to use the site, but you do have to subscribe first. Seems that Iowa and Kansas are reluctant to use this.<o:p></o:p></p>

and make sure the NFBLive platform is useable bhy all who want to participate. Now that we’ve made the investment, we truly need to find ways to get our money’s worth.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<br>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt">Greetings!<br>
</span> <br>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt">We wish to announce the launch of NFB Live, a voice chat site hosted by the National Federation of the Blind of New York. Our grand opening will be on Saturday August 30. The day's activities as of now include games, door prizes,
and a series of special guests and venders. The day will start at 2:00 PM Eastern with Carl Jacobsen, from the NFB of New York introducing two distinguished guest speakers, Mister Mark Riccobono, President of the National Federation of the Blind, and Doctor
Marc Maurer, immediate past president. Throughout the day, we will have a series of presentations by several speakers and venders. At present, we are proud to have Art Schreiber who will discuss his experiences as one of two American reporters who travelled
with the Beatles during their 1964 US/Canadian tour, and James Gashel who will discuss the KNFB Reader for iPhones, . We are happy to also have Dan Parker, blind motorcycle driver, who will tell us about his adventures driving in the Bonneville Salt Flats.<br>
</span> <br>
<span style="font-size:10.0pt">J.J. Meddaugh from the A T Guys will offer a presentation on his organization's products, and James Boehm from Kustomcane, will inform us about his unique line of canes and accessories. We also will talk with Gail Smith about
Braille greeting cards. We'll end the night with a few games.<br>
