Things Learned from Sensory Interaction Community


By creating this website on Ning I learned a lot about community engagement and human interaction.  I learned that, though small there is a community out there of people who are disabled and use technological tools to help them live life more independently.  For example T.V. Raman is a Google pioneer in customizing technology to blind users.  He himself is blind so he is motivated to create tools that might help others who are blind as well.  I also learned that my members bring interesting topics to hand as well as new technology that they come across to help the process.  Hopefully we come up with enough ideas to actually create a service or product that can help others in the future.
