#BeatCaps was a new #a11y way to experience music. Now powered by @guidebolt

If you have @Zoom premium, they recently added #a11y closed #captions . Here's how: https://t.co/UCWar9kET3

What are your favourite video streaming apps, content walls aside?

We finally have some active alpha users. The feedback so far has been easy to solve, but we over-complicated the billing stuff so that needs to be rolled back for a bit #buildinginpublic

[Cristina Hartmann @cmmhartmann]

As a DeafBlind person, I feel torn about the trend of people describing their physical appearance during meetings for those who are blind/low vision.

I appreciate the effort to make things more accessible and inclusive. Truly & deeply, but--

@katerowley0 .@DeafCulture showed us about signed music

@DeafGamersTV I really hope you get this!!

Hey @Zoom is there any way to have the captions ALWAYS enabled instead of having to turn it on every time? I have the settings all turned on. And I still have to enable it.

@jonsanders32 @beccamals Yes

[Wave: Small Business Software @WaveHQ]

Wave customer Kemal Ahmed saw how everyday musical experiences left out the Deaf community. So, he created BeatCaps, a software tool that adds multi-sensual experiences to streaming music. And with Wave, he's able to focus on the business, not just running the numbers.

@merylkevans @Namecheap @GoDaddy I also transferred all my GoDaddy domains to namecheap and have never looked back

[Caption Pros @CaptionPros]

Start a dialogue at work or even with your friends about how to become more #inclusive in your life daily. The first step of how to stop worrying about saying the wrong thing is to talk about it.

[BeatCaps @beat_caps]

@cbcgem heads up that closed captions on your app can't be enabled for ads. Not that I wanted to pay attention to the ads 🤷🏾

[The Verge @verge]

Clubhouse and its clones have an accessibility problem https://t.co/5l4hFoUTCj

Normalize asking Deaf people what’s their favorite song... you’d be surprised.

[BeatCaps @beat_caps]

@googlearts @Google I'm happy about the ASL version! One suggestion though is to make it available through a custom viewer like this https://t.co/f6oDqQYyZb where you can resize otherwise it's difficult to understand the signs on mobile

@deaftravel @cbcradio @DeafBC1 Sorry yeah, just HTML speak, but I mean the CBC Radio website could support captions if they wanted to.
