Personal Captioning: New technology update this week on i711.com

From: i711 Relay - May 18, 2005

Hello!

Here's what's new this week on i711.com:

Movie theaters have had captioning options for years. But what about museums, live theater, concerts or other public events? Lisa Goldstein looks at the latest in personal captioning technology, and takes a peek at a solution that may take accessibility to the next level for public events. See the latest issue of "Bits, Bytes and Baudot," Goldstein's bi-weekly technology column on i711.com.

Also available this week:

* Employment Matters: Many sites publish listings for jobs specifically for people who are deaf or hard of hearing. But which sites are useful? Which sites need work? "Employment Matters" summarizes the good, the average, and the out-of-date.

* Cultural Perspectives: Is the Deaf community at a crisis point when it comes to mental health services? Trudy Suggs looks at a compelling need, and considers some accessible alternatives for receiving counseling services.

* Your thoughts and comments: Readers react to the articles, and post their own community experiences. Share, participate and learn together.
