Tek Talk welcomes David Goldfield to discuss the various email lists he has created, how he got into assistive technology, and his current role as a product manager with Comcast’s accessibility team. Some of the mailing lists David has created include Zoom-Users, Teams-Access for discussing Microsoft Teams, and, most recently, LarryKing-Fans for those interested in discussing their memories and sharing rare recordings of Larry King, particularly from his radio programs. He’ll place some additional emphasis on the Tech-VI list: why he created it and what he will and won’t distribute on it along with how to subscribe. He will also talk a little bit about how he got into assistive technology starting with the Kurzweil Reading Machine in 1978 to when he entered the field professionally with Blazie Engineering, followed by his two roles training visually impaired children and adults to his current role as a product manager with Comcast’s accessibility team.
