TTY phone for the deaf
5/18/05

It is in black and white but over-sharpened to create a special effect,
almost like a vintage piece. In this time and age, computers have
replaced our choice for communication. Not many deaf people use the
TTY/TTD, perhaps for emergencies. I'm paying ode to this TTY that has
helped me for over ten years. Thanks old friend!

Oh yes Michelle.. it has and it has been more of a blessing than anything else. I love the ability to communicate with my friends in ease and use the relay all at the same time. It also saves a lot of money in phone calls since being on the relay takes a long time. I should write more about the tty in this webpage and explain how it works.

Technology really has been a boost to the deaf community, hasn't it? the internet, instant messaging, etc I do have a tdd which I use if someone is on the computer or if I can't get on the internet for some reason.
