Hi folks,

Jusst a line about a couple of websites which may be of interest.  I'm 
sure most on the list will already be aware of them, but there may 
be a few  who aren't.

Perhaps the committee might like to consider  putting links to some of 
these sites on the VICS home page?

Regards,

Eamonn



BLIND-GEEK-ZONE: 

Firstly:  a line about  a most interesting website, hosted by rick Harmon. 
 It covers such areas as:
Audio tutorials, programs, blindness-related mailing lists, links and 
websites of interest.

Rick has produced multi-part tutorials on GoldWave and Nero Burning Rom, 
which may be found on his, or the blind cool tech site.

House for the Blind - remember the Perkins!

podcasts on a great variety of subjects

JFWLITE:

Originally a mailing list for JAWS users, the site is no longer updated, 
since the untimely death of it's founder, Debbie Scales.  Nevertheless, it 
   continues to be a most valuable resource, covering such areas as: 
Programs and scripts, helpful  hints, training and tutorials,and links to 
members's homepages
