This article did make me laugh a bit, but at the same time it kind of
makes me sad. It seems the only press voice over ever gets in the
mainstream mac sites is that it is annoying and how do I turn it off.
I'm not saying vo should get top story or anything like that, but when
the itunes update came out and was accessible that was mentioned
nowhere. I tried emailing some podcasters about it and when I did get
responses it was like oh that's cool but they never mentioned it on
the podcasts. It just sometimes feels like we are invisible in both
the blindness community and the sighted community as well. I remember
when tiger came out and it had voice over, I never heard voice over
mentioned. People talked about spotlight being new and all the cool
new features but voice over was never mentioned. If I didn't read
blindness related blogs and that sort of thing I wouldn't know about
voice over.
I'm not saying sighted people should always talk about voice over, but
a positive mention every now and then wouldn't hurt would it?
