How Blind People Use the iPhone 4S

Tommy Edison, aka the Blind Film Critic, has amassed over a million views on YouTube with his movie reviews. Blind since birth, he started a second YouTube channel, the Tommy Edison Experience, to talk about his life and answer questions from fans. Here, he demonstrates how he navigates his iPhone 4S to surf YouTube, check Twitter, and send messages.

This is pretty amazing. And if you’re not following Tommy Edison’s YouTube channel, you should be. He’s fascinating, and a great learning source for anyone interested in accessibility.
