> On this month's edition:
> We spend some time with students participating on the 'Learning For Life' 
> rehabilitative training programme at NCBI, who tell us about some of their 
> favourite technology.
> Amongst those mentioned are Balabolka, a useful little windows application 
> to allow you to easily convert text documents into a range of audio 
> formats, and Fleksy, to make typing on your iPhone, iPod or iPad much 
> faster!
> We continue our Windows 8 tutorial series, this time looking at some of 
> the configuration settings in Narrator, the built-in screen reader and 
> also take a look at Windows 8 charms, and how they can be used.
> We meet Surabhi Gupta, a developer from San Francisco, who has recently 
> launched an app called Braillist, which allows entry of Grade 1 and Grade 
> 2 Braille using your iOS device's touch screen, and best of all, this app 
> is completely free!
> Finally, musician Nicky Kealy from Carlow joins us to talk about his use 
> of technology.

> Kind regards,
