Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #44

Hey there, hope you are having a great day. It’s Tuesday and we’ve got our newest podcast going live or it actually already is live today and we’ve got a first for sure, for Alexa in Canada.

We have a guest on the podcast today who is a member of the most excellent order of the British empire.

His name is Robin Kristofferson and he joins me on the podcast to talk about accessibility.

Robin himself is blind and we had a great discussion about how he uses technology to help him out in his daily activities and in particular how he uses voice technology like Alexa to help out as well.

And he’s got very, very extensive background in the area of accessibility and inclusion. In fact, his job is working for a charitable organization in England, which is where he lives and known as Ability Net.

Accessibility and Alexa

And so I’m really, really excited to welcome him onto the podcast and I hope that you will join us.

So it’s episode 20, if you simply head over to I don’t want to say the word, the “A” word, or as you’ll hear Robin referred to her as “Alexa” lady.

If you’ll head to the website, AlexainCanada.ca/20, you will find the episode there and I’ve got some show notes there, summarizing some things that we talk about and as well, I’ve got some key links there as well.

One thing I’ll mention is that Robin does have a podcast known as Dot to Dot where he reviews lots of different skills and anyway, we get into all of that in the podcast.

So I hope you will join us today @AlexainCanada.ca/20. And I look forward to speaking with you again tomorrow. Take care.
