I haven't done a lot noteworthy this month.

What have you all been up to?

Mostly brainwork, heh. I would like to have got any labwork at all done, but... *sigh*

On the upside, I have actually managed to write more terrible python, so ;)

Some travel, some jetlag!

Oh I know what that's like! I had it both during and after my trips to Honolulu in January, 2004 for my birthday and London in the spring of 1997 visiting a sister who was doing a semester abroad. As for me and what trouble I've caused since we last spoke...Well, I've been doing more for my volunteer job. We're going to start doing stuff on LinkedIn, so I've been learning the lay of the land there. Fortunately though, it seems to play nicely with VoiceOver. In addition, I found a couple seminars that were done by The Hadley School for the Blind. One of the seminars is a 2-part presentation that discussed LinkedIn in general, and no particular screen reader was discussed. However, the presenter did mention that LinkedIn is very accessible with screen readers so that was good to hear. The other seminar discussed LinkedIn with JAWS, which is one of the screen readers I used in the past. So that's been occupying a lot of my time. I also just received not 1, but 2 iTunes gift cards. So that brings my total up to four now. So I've been devoting some time to learning iTunes on the Mac. I found a very good podcast on @AppleVis that discusses iTunes version 12 in depth and how to use it with VoiceOver so I'm going to follow along with that.
