Every week we come across interesting articles related to the disability and accessibility world. They can be informative, funny, interesting, and even sad. Here are a few links that fit into these categories.

Access Glasses

  • Coming soon! Sony Entertainment and Regal Entertainment Group have partnered to develop “Access Glasses.” They will be available in some Regal theaters later this month, and will caption and subtitle both 2D and 3D films.
  • It’s hard to believe that we could find an article on Perez Hilton’s website that is at all relevant to this blog, but we did! Paul McCartney’s new video for My Valentine featured Johnny Depp and Natalie Portman “paying homage to the beautiful language of sign.” Unfortunately, they had some missteps while signing, and signed words “tampon” instead of “appear,” and “enemy” instead of “valentine.”

  • Have you read anything about the new iPhone/iPad app called “See It”? As the article states, “It does pretty much what a regular sized CCTV does, but for $4 instead of $1000+.” Great news for people with low vision.

These are a few of the accessibility-related things we found around the Web. Now it’s your turn to share some of the cool things you’ve found!
