This week's Slashdot's interview guest is Curtis Chung, Director of
Technology for the National Federation of the Blind, the group that is
suing AOL over access for blind users.

Chung is a bona fide expert on computer use by the blind; he's blind
himself, and before he took his current job he spent 17 years "...with
American Express as a designer/consultant, providing technical support
for
mainframe and mid range communication and operating system software." So
ask away. One question per post, please. 10 - 15 selected questions will
be forwarded to Curtis Tuesday. Answers will appear Friday.
[end quote]

Help other users to understand what's important for a computer user who
is
blind and post your comment.

Enjoy!
