I'm pleased to announce that a new program has been added to TFN to enable visually impaired visitors "hear" the site. This new technology from vozme.com is still in its infancy, but the early results are promising.

The service is not yet available across the whole site, but it has been installed for all of the articles.

Although it takes a bit of time to get used to the voice and diction provided by the program, after a couple of seconds the article is fairly easy to hear and understand.

In the development stage of the site, consideration was also given to those who can't see quite as clearly as others by making the typeface a little bigger, and making sure that titles and links had enough contrast to make them readily visible.
