In this episode of iCantCU, I discuss more issues with apps and their lack of accessibility. This time, it’s Uber and ASX. Both were better than Starbucks but required workarounds or the dreaded sighted help.
I also recount a fantastic afternoon with our friends at the Greater Philly Chapter. Their President, Denice Brown, invited members of the Keystone Chapter to their annual New Year’s lunch. Did I get Mac and cheese? You’ll have to listen for the answer.
In Just Listen, I play Ziggy, The Golden Song, which I created with the help of ChatGPT for the lyrics and Suno.ai for the music. There are two song versions, and you’ll get a sample of both. What do you think?
