[Nfbofnc] Technology Event

[Alan A. Chase]

The Wake Federation of the Blind is sponsoring a Meet the Blind month event
at ECPI University 4101 Doie Cope Road, Raleigh, NC 27613.  This event will
feature users of devices from low-tech to high-tech-- after all it is Meet
the Blind month.  All of these items being demonstrated make daily life and
work easier for the user.  The event is an opportunity for anyone to learn
a different aspect of technology they never knew about.  What does that
word “accessibility” and “voiceover” mean on the Iphone?
