I know, I know, it's pretty bare. |
|
As with all communities just starting out, I am going to need |
|
your help getting the word out. It looks sparse right now, but |
|
I hope you can all envision (no pun intended) what this forum |
|
could become if it is nurtured and supported and active. This |
|
forum will not work without a community because its intention is |
|
to be a place FOR a community. |
|
I will do my part to get people here, but I still need help. I |
|
am a grad student after all, and working on this forum is purely |
|
out of love. |
|
If you know ANYTHING about advertising or getting the right |
|
traffic to a website, please let me know. It also has to be |
|
free (for now). In an ideal world, this will have its own |
|
domain and an engaged community. |
|
Please try to see this as it could be, not as it is right now. |
|
If this idea is even remotely of interest to you, please join |
|
and please tell someone. I also appreciate feedback and advice. |
|
And encouraging words too, who am I kidding. |
|
Thanks for understanding. |
|
**UPDATE 9/22: I've submitted this forum to major search |
|
engines. Not sure I did it exactly right. I'm hoping that if |
|
someone googles "Visual Impairment Forum" (like I had, to find a |
|
place like this) this will be on top. So far, tested that and |
|
it's not working yet. |
|
I've also created a FB page. I'll be using it to post |
|
inspirational quotes. I will be roaming the interweb to find |
|
where visually impaired people may be, sharing my experience and |
|
linking here. |

Added forum rules :-) |
|
I've also been finding some great support groups for people with |
|
VI on Facebook but I'm afraid I haven't had the chance to link |
|
them yet. So when I get the chance, I will, because they |
|
deserve a shout out. There's some great people out there, I |
|
feel so blessed being a part of such a great community. And to |
|
think, a few months ago I didn't even know this community |
|
existed! |
