Ron McCallum: How technology allowed me to read | TED.com

Posted on by

Months after he was born, in 1948, Ron McCallum became blind. In this charming, moving talk, he shows how he is able to read — and celebrates the progression of clever tools and adaptive computer technologies that make it possible. With their help, and that of generous volunteers, he’s become a lawyer, an academic, and, most of all, a voracious reader. Welcome to the blind reading revolution.

Data to Live By: Understanding the Social Media + Technology Landscape  | Pew Research Center

Its been amazing to see my parents, who never bothered to use computers for anything even 10 years ago, start using dial-up so they could connect with distant relatives on Facebook. Just recently they switched to broadband and installed a wireless router so they could connect to the Internet with their iPhones and iPads (without the monthly expense of a telephone bill). I’m proud of my parents…it was not easy for them to learn how to use computers, especially with the slowness of dial-up. Now mobile has definitely been a game changer for them, facilitating instant social interactions with friends and family with ease.
