NEWSWIRE: MONDAY, February 13, 2017, 8 PM EST, THE PAT PRICE ROOM:
WWW.ACCESSIBLEWORLD.ORG
Good morning Tek Talk listeners/audience. This evening we are going to have
a discussion of some of our most favorite household/computer gadgets. I'd
like to have a lot of you discuss some of the things that allow you the most
independence with today's technology. Remember that the times are 5 PM
Pacific, 8 PM Eastern and other times listed below.
I will facilitate this program and start with some ideas be it GPS, Smart
Phones, gadgets in the kitchen, Echo products, mobility equipment, and
computers and their programs which give you assistance on a day-to-day
basis.
I'll give you a hint for next week's program which will feature a great
gentleman who will speak about Twitter, how he uses it with his iPhone, but
will also touch on other devices which use Twitter. There will be a Newswire
out on that tomorrow or Wednesday.
State tuned tonight for a fun program of Tek Talk and see what other
listeners do to make their lives a little easier.
