Don’t miss the continuing live coverage of the 2006 convention on ACB Radio Mainstream, culminating in the banquet starting at 4:00 PM Pacific time, 7:00 PM Eastern time tonight. We at the Blind Access Journal send along our heartfelt thanks to ACB Radio for the excellent coverage of the convention. Keep up the great work!
We thank Scott Spaulding for recording and podcasting a significant amount of the 2006 NFB convention. Check out Scott’s Podcast to download the audio.
Some of you may have noticed that, for a short time, the counter near the bottom of the home page was displaying an inaccurate number of hits to the site. It appears the data used by this tool became reset to 0 late yesterday night or early this morning. This problem has been corrected by manually resetting the counter to an estimated number of hits that should be reasonably accurate. Apologies for any confusion this may have caused.
Joani from the Carroll Center for the Blind reports that Microsoft has decided to develop tools to support ODF. See Microsoft to Support ODF for more information. I am very happy to see that Joani has returned to us on the pages of the All About Access blog.

We have recently learned that John Wilson has made his “from the Keyboard” tutorials, previously sold by National Braille Press, available online free of charge. Unfortunately, it appears these materials may not be updated further. We thank John for making this information available to all.
