Happy Holidays!
1 thing this season and hang on to it. Life throws you hard balls catch
them and run with it. Love everything you can. I wish you all a very
happy holidays. My Goal for next year is to bring an on board staff who
can help me keep the site up dated. Some new content is on the way and
I'm going to try a different lay out and you'll get a chance to vote on
your favorite.
Again happy holidays!

Getting the site out and known. Make it the one stop shopping for resources.
I'm ready for the site to really go main stream. It's my goal to bring
the site into the blind community full force. I'm hoping that by having
a great pack of viewers and contributors we can achieve this goal. So
here's a few things I'm going to put into place so everyone can help
out. Each month I'm going to post across twitter and the blog and the
main site topics for submissions. So 1 month will be anything medical,
and I mean anything. Next month might be online shopping sites that are
accessible. No stone will go unturned and together we'll make a site
that can help others in complete dignity and comfort. Life is stressful
as is, why throw blindness on top of that, if blindaccessts can help
take a bit of stress off that is the goal.
I send a great and warm thank you out too the ones who've helped out so
far. I may not be able to return E-mails all the time but I really do
try to keep an on going line of communication with you guys.
So again thanks and lets bring BlindAccessTS from the stone age into the
internet realm of great possibility.

A new resource that I found useful last night.
I was in the hospital last night and wanted to order in some food. Now I
lived in Seattle before but had no idea what was around to order and who
would deliver. After calling a couple places one of the people suggested
I check out Eat 24 Hour.com. It's a service that shows you what delivers
near you.
It's a pretty easy interface you type your address all on 1 line and
then go down to a different box and type what you'd like to eat. see example
address 2011 crazy street Seattle wa
and here you'd type the food choice so Pizza or Chinese or whatever
category you are craving.
Hit search and in seconds you have a list of food shops that deliver.
You can click on any that look good and it has online menus and you can
even order online from the website. The important thing is it has online
menus no more asking what they have and not getting exactly what you want.
The URL is:

Thanks
Zack
Note I'll add the link to the site asap

Some very important updates.
It's about 4:30 in the morning and I'm sitting here in my nice relaxing
hospital bed. Some medical issues decided to drop by and so I'm really
busy being a perfect host to them.
If you go load up the site you'll notice 2 big features. Go ahead I'll
wait...
Did you see the google search box?
It allows you to search the website if you tell it to or it searches the
entire internet. If you click the check box it'll only search bats.
Did you notice the other thing?
We now have a fancy counter on the site. It allows me to keep track of
how offten the site is visited. You can also see these stats as well.
Just click the bottom link. I have a better one that allows me to do a
few more things in the works.
Well keep safe. Submit your hearts out and never juggle hedgehogs.
