We’ve made our website talk!
ReadSpeaker Added to www.myelitis.org

ReadSpeaker is an innovative program that transforms text into speech.  We added ReadSpeaker to our website to facilitate access to information for people who have visual impairment from Optic Neuritis, Neuromyelitis Optica or Multiple Sclerosis.  Also, for thousands of people who visit our web site seeking information and support, English is not their first language.  Listening to the text could make it easier for people to understand this critically important information. 

It is very easy to use; no plug-ins or downloads are required.  To activate speech on a web page, all you have to do is look for the “SayIt” icon on the page and click it:

All of the text from the article will be read to you and the speech quality is excellent.
