Dear Idaho Friends,Our NFB Idaho website now has a new exciting feature.
That new feature is a NFBI Video Gallery page. This video gallery page
displays 24 of the Idaho's Blind Youtubes channel's most recent videos.

There is a large player at the top of the page with 24 thumbnail images
below, three columns across with eight down per column.

Each thumbnail image has the videos title displayed below it, which is
screen reader friendly. Simply click on the desired title or thumbnail
image and that video will automatically migrate to the player at the top of
the page and begin playing. Across the bottom of the player you will find
the traditional player controls including full screen option.

For those interested in the techy details the website is directly connected
to the Idaho's Blind Youtube channel on the back end through the Google
Developers console and the use of API keys. The result is a really cool and
useful feature that allows visitors to really get to know you and the
wonderful people of the Idaho NFB.

You can access the NFBI Video Gallery at the top of the website or use this
link to go directly there.

Again, happy Independence Day to you and I hope you will be enjoying
National Convention one way or another.


Best,
Kevin
