This week we hear another Techie Tidbit from Tyler Juranek. Next, Darrell Shandrow begins a two-part interview with Nancy Miracle of Digital Miracles about Digit-Eyes, a bar-code-scanning app for the iPhone designed especially for the blind. Conducted at the 2010 ACB national convention, this interview covers many topics including some general background information about bar codes, a demonstration of the proper use of Digit-Eyes, information about how to focus the iPhone for taking good pictures, tips on how to insert labels properly into printers, and a sneak peek at upcoming products from Digital Miracles. We also hear a fascinating story about how a mainstream developer became aware of the need for products designed for the blind.
