Yes, this is the same Be My Eyes app which is already being discussed on
list. As you said, it's pretty clear from the URL itself that it's the
same app, and AngelVoice's description also suggests this, although
AngelVoice may not have been aware of those other threads. Obviously,
following the link would have also made this clear.

Hi,
When I listened to the link I thought I heard it say be my eyes as parts of
the link so I assumed it was the app we've been hearing about for a couple
of days already.
Is this not so?

When reading the message on my iPhone, that portion was not heard. I only
saw the link. That's why I responded as I did.
I did not ask for an elaborate review or for info pasted from a site. All I
asked for was a simple synopsis or a bit of info about the app. As for how
easily you can go elsewhere to determine your interest, why not eliminate
that step by doing as I suggest. That is more of a time saver for the
reader. If interested, find out more at, so and so dot such and such. If
not, there's no need to go there. Also, if a malicious message were to be
posted that wants you to click on a link, this is how a lot of viruses,
spyWare and MalWare are spread, so not having to click on a link to get info
also eliminates this potential threat.

AngelVoice's message already includes the following text "This app was
created to help the blind and visually impaired to "see" with the help
of sighted volunteers. Sounds interesting." I think this is plenty of
information anyone needs before deciding to read the article. I don't
think people need to write elaborate reviews or reproduce the
information from a web site just to post information about an app on
this list. I'm not sure this is true for everyone, but it's a lot less
time and effort for me to click on a link in an email message than it
would be to write the message below. If you're not interested enough to
click on the link then just delete the message and move on.

Rather than just a link, could you give some info so that list members
can decide whether they are interested or not before going elsewhere to
find out? Just a thought. Thanks.
