Category: Let's talk
Hi all,
I recently discovered a cool blindness website, so I thought to let you all know about it, since thereusually aren't such websites like this one on the
net. It is a sight with all kinds of features, including voice chatting, audio describtive movies, shows, programmes and presentations and a lot more.
The link is
www.out-of-sight.net
if you want to check it out.
Have a great day,
Adrijana

Ok, I'll check it out. Oh. How much does it cost to sign up?
Sorry, it should have been
www.out-of-sight.netIt is all completely free.
Sweet. I'll have to check this out.
Nice one Adrijana, I'll be checking that out myself.
I checked it out. Its really nice, but wheres r the links to the described movies and tv shows? I couldn't find them, or r they just not up yet?
Hmmmmm, I'll have to take a look at this. very interesting.
The links are in some of the rooms. There's one called Couch Potato with TV shows, and I can't remember what the movies one is called. I don't like the way the terms of service was written for that site. Usually I don't bother to read those, but it was going on about a board of members who decide your punishments if you step out of line. Not in those words of course, but I thought it was very condescending. It is a cool website though, it just seems like a place where a lot of problems are going to be started up for no reason. Also, they have to approve your account before you use it. When I signed up for the zone, and I'm sure this is true for 99% of all other websites, you get an automated email that you click on to activate your account. No, not this site--the board of directors had to review your profile first before they would activate your account. They also choose your password for you. You can change it, but you have to email--again, asking for permission. I think something is strange about that whole setup, but who knows? You also had to provide your full name when registering, something else I don't like, because it's not good to have your last name out there for everyone to see. You're just asking for somebody to stalk you. But I'll look around and see what I think of the site itself and let you all know.
Oh, the movies are in the drive in board and don't worry too much about what they say in the policy board, I think they say this, because they want everyone to be equal. I personally talked to one m of the moderators and in the conversation, he said that they never intend to punish people just like they do on other sites and that they view their site as a community of blind people and respect peoples opinions and views. Believe me, people there joke a lot.
OK, then why do they have to "approve" your account first?
