  • Get Picture Perfect using the Can You See Me for Windows

    In this podcast Thomas Domville covers a Windows App called Can You See Me. Can You See Me is a simple tool that offers guidance on webcam placement to people with limited amounts of useful vision. Based on simple verbal feedback given by the tool, blind people can independently position themselves appropriately in relation to their webcam before attending online meetings such that other sighted participants are able to see them. The tool uses on-device computer vision, which in non-technical terms means that unlike some other services the images that your webcam captures are never sent to third parties.

  • Freeze Time with the Toolwiz Time Freeze for Windows

    Toolwiz Time Freeze is a useful tool which you use to try out changes or new programs on your system knowing that, no matter what you do, nothing will be affected on your PC in terms of functionality or performance.


    This program works in the background. Right when you open it, it starts working, without making any visible changes, in a new, customized environment where any change disappears upon restarting your computer. It should be stated again that in order to be able to eliminate changes, Toolwiz Time Freeze must be active when the changes are being made.


    If you pull up the interface from the background, you can select an option that blocks certain folders and files in order to precisely determine which changes will remain on your computer. By doing this, you'll ensure that not all the changes established will disappear. You can keep the ones that you want to stay.


    This last option gives your system some added security since you'll be able to select the files you want to keep one your PC, no matter when they were created. This will keep certain folders and files protected against any future system failures.


    Toolwiz Time Freeze is an application that allows you to work in a safe environment.
