Blind faith
Many many moons ago I worked for a company supplying computer equipment to the blind and visually impaired.... screen readers, braille printers and the like......one of our clients was the RNIB technology centre in Peterborough....

We provided a screen reader to one of their clients, blind since birth, and connected him to the internet. After demonstrating the software we connected him to the internet and asked him if there was anything he wanted to find out, given the vast swathes of information out there.... his reply...

"Dudley... I have always been interested in Dudley.... the place"

Sorry for such a dull post, but it just shows that we take the web for granted...

These days I would probably have given him an audio running (pun intended) commentary of 2 girls 1 cup and run out of the room.

Being "good with computers" saw me doing a bit of casual tech support
for a couple of blind girls, arranged through my better half when at uni. One of her flatmates got a similar gig, when I wasn't around, but found himself at a loss when the PC in question didn't have a monitor. Navigating Windows by memory is hard.
