Zoom It


I have recently been given a excellent link to Zoom IT from Theresa Welch our work based learning advisor. ZoomIt is a desktop zoom and annotation tool, that enables you to zoom your desktop with your wheel mouse or the up and down arrow keys on your keyboard. This acts like a magnifier, it also has a excellent colour pen which you can annotate over the top of of your desk top, excellent for presentations and demonstrations. Download the software free from http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897434.aspx



Copy Right Free Images


I have recently been searching for images for a Accessibility Blog, I came across Flickr CC http://flickrcc.bluemountains.net/.

There are some excellent images available as long as you attribute the photographer. You can enlarge the photo by clicking on the thumb nail, also there is a search facility available.


Also you could try Pic Finder this is a search engine that will , PicFindr , search ten different sites to find images you can freely use in your own work.
