   iOS shopping apps make it especially convenient to do holiday shopping

   Recently, Apple released iOS 9, a new operating system for iPhone, iPad,

   There is a new player in the video assistance arena called CrowdViz, and
   like Be My Eyes it is currently only available in the iOS App Store, though
   an Android version is also in the works. Unlike Be My Eyes, however, after
   eight complimentary video assistance sessions, new sessions must be paid
   for via in-app purchase.

   sitecues, a tool developed by ZoomText maker Ai Squared, seeks to make
   the web easier to read for users who could benefit from text magnification
   or speech, especially those who don't use other assistive technology
   solutions.

   Jamie Pauls

   As you prepare to spend time with those you care about this holiday
   season, why not visit 64 Oz. Games and purchase some accessibility kits for
   games that you and yours can play together. It is evident that Richard and
   Emily Gibbs have a lot of energy and enthusiasm for what they do, and they
   have only just gotten started making accessibility kits for games that the
   blind and sighted can play together. Let's give them our support!
