Coming up on Main Menu and Main Menu Live for the week of March 7th, 2007


Hello Everyone,



This week on Main Menu we hear all about a brand-new free open source screen reader called NonVisual Desktop Access. During the first hour on Main Menu we hear from the developer of NonVisual Desktop Access, Michael Curran. He gives us a demonstration of NVDA.



During the second hour on Main Menu Live we bring Michael Curran on to talk with us further all about his screen reader. Have you ever wanted to find out what makes a screen reader work? What are the future plans for NVDA? We learn all of this and more on Main Menu Live.



We will open the phone lines at the top of the hour to allow you to call in and ask any questions you have for our guest. The number to call into the
