[Nfbmt] Library

[d m gina]

I don't know of a blog on behalf of the federation topics we have been 
discussing?
Where folks write blogs all of the time.
In your training you will learn how to do this kind of thing.
When you get home you will know so much more on your computer.
By next year you will be surprised what all you got accomplished.

> Hello again, friends, and fellow Federationists.

> I had meant to invite someone to continue this conversation about the 
> current reading devices and means and strategies of acquiring the 
> reading materials.

> It may well be that there is a website that has a well-written and 
> current summary of all that is available and detail about each.
> I know many of us in our circle, have a good brain trust already.
> But I am always with an antenna outreached. And I find I can not hope 
> to really keep abreast of all the fast developing innovations and technology.

> If someone is aware of a specific page or website, please reply to this 
> discussion thread and post that link. Okay?

> Here are just a couple places I may suggest.
> You probably know of the NFB A T Blog.
> There are good posts there, and discussion.
> Here is that link:

> https://nfb.org/blognames/atblog

> And as to a podcast, some of you may enjoy, as I have come to enjoy 
> listening regularly to the Eyes on Success podcast with Nancy and Peter 
> Torphey. The cover a lot of ground, and they have good guests, covering 
> a very wide range of topics. It is only 30 minutes or so which makes it 
> nice and concise. The original name of the podcast was Viewpoints Plus. 
> And they changed it to Eyes on Success last year. I tell you that so 
> that the link will not confuse anybody.

> http://viewpointsplus.net/

> Here is another thing to mention and share.
> Feeds. I love feeds.
> Do you use RSS Feeds?
> There is another thing I started to use regularly in the last year or so.
> When I find a thing I like to return to to read or to find content to 
> download, I will look for a link for the RSS Feeds.
> Not much about it that is specifically for the blind. But I find it 
> absolutely cool to use. Quick to navigate using speech, and easy to 
> download from.
> Does anyone use Feeds regularly?  I do!  Mostly I have come to use them 
> by way of the Internet Explorer browser. I put the Feeds under 
> different categories. Which makes it nice to have them sorted out a 
> bit.  My big categories are, just in case you are wondering:   ARTS & 
> ENTERTAINMENT, BASEBALL, BLIND TECH, GENERAL INTEREST, NEWS, and 
> POLITICS.  When I subscribe to a feed of somehting, I will place it in 
> one of those places in the process.

> Mister Talky Talk. That is me today, huh?
> Right to a T.
> Give me a T. Give me an A. Give me an L.
> What’s that spell?
> Oops. You forgot the K.
> What?
> The K, I say.

> Sigh. He is hopeless, I tell you.
> Enjoy your Friday. And your January. And your 2014.
> Rik James
