Some interesting deaf-related things online
July 2nd, 2008 — garethMy BSL Level 3 class has now finished temporarily for the summer and I figured it would be a good idea to let them know the interesting deaf-related blogs etc that I keep an eye on. So here we have a very brief but hopefully useful and interesting compilation of things I know about:
Blogs
- Benfletcher’s Weblog (from my good friend Ben)
- Bsl Jeff’s Vlog
- gwallgofi
- Noesis
- Grumpy Old Deafies
- This site (anything tagged ‘bsl’ that I put up here)
Online dictionaries (there’s many more but here’s a couple)
- Mobilesign
- ICT Dictionary (a list of some common technical BSL signs)
Other resources
- My bookmarks tagged ‘bsl’ (should have everything here already and will be updated as and when I find anything interesting)
- Some multi channel signs
- BDA Sign Community
- DeafPulse.com
For the non-technical amongst you it’s worth pointing out that all these blogs (and some of the other sites) have feeds that can be subscribed to so you are notified of new posts. Worth checking out rather than regularly going to each and every page looking for updates. Google Reader is a fairly good aggregator to use for this purpose - check out this video for a really good simple explanation of it all.
If anyone has any more recommendations, please add them as comments below or let me know some other way.
