Seems these emails have been out there for several weeks, and the same
complaints come up each week; the pattern is set, these folks provide what I
consider to be a helpful service. But if I didn't care, I'd just delete and
move on, what I normally do with complaint emails too.

I think that it is nice that this organization wants to make us aware of
these different apps. If you don't want to know more, don't click on the
link and simply delete the email. Most sighted people, and blind people,
get junk mail. Just throw it away. It seems that many people on different
lists for the blind simply are not appreciative of the things that we have.
We just got our first iphones and are so greatful that Apple has created
such an amazing product. We resisted them for many years, but my husband,
who has had surgery on all of his fingers and is totally blind, can access
the internet and a lot of information for the first time. Apple technical
support is amazing they will take as much time as you need to explain things
and give you advice. We need to be careful that our meriad complaints don't
stop Apple from having designated service for the disabled and in making
such amazingly accessible products. In short, be greatful for what you have
and the advantages it gives you. Remember that just five or ten years ago
we did not have all of this information. If someone needed to go to an
appointment theyt got sighted assistance when they arrived in an area. They
didn't just get mad because an asp wouldn't give them all the information.
They didn't constantly complain about battery life or what the device that
was helping them said. Be greatful Siri tells you the temperature and don't
complain about the sense of humor. Maybe we need to develop one. Sorry for
the rant, but I am tired of just deleting complaint emails. This list is
great and I have learned a ton. That is what we should be doing here.
Thanks.

I went to the site and read the article, which described several apps, so
perhaps posting the link to the article was the best thing to do. It's not
any different than some of kim Komando's articles.

Since you're so in to saving us time, instead of complaining about what is
posted, why not just paste the information illuded too in the
afore-mentioned post then you won't have to read all those messages
complaining about the message which in a sense is spam.

I totally get that people's time is valuable, and everyone has the right
to delete any message they want or manage their email however they want
to. I would like to point out that sending a message to the list
complaining about posts also takes time. I know sending such messages
definitely takes more time than hitting the delete key. I also think it
takes more time to send such a message than it does to just click on a
link.
Furthermore, these messages mean that over a thousand list members have to
spend their time reading and deleting a message about something the
moderator has already said is perfectly acceptable on this list.
If anyone is interested in reading some reviews on different apps that you
might find useful when traveling, such as trip planners, navigation apps,
currency and measurement converters, flight trackers and so on then click
on the link in the attached message. Multiple apps are reviewed, which is
the only reason I'm not taking the time to duplicate a list you can get to
by just clicking on a link.

of that business is generated by their web site, but my time is also
valuable.

This happened last time Fedora posted things to this site. For reasons
we'll never know, they aren't allowed to, you know, say the app's
nameggness) in their posts on this or other lists. It makes no sense, and
I think many people simply delete them now, but there you have it.

Hi,
Why not post the name of the app along with the link. I'm out on the road
right now and Safari's running reeeeeeeeally sloooooowwww, so it would be
nice to see the app name so I can decide whether I want to follow the
link.
