One of the things I like about trade shows like DeafNation is that once you’ve seen all the big booths, its fun to check out the smaller booths for lesser known, but top-notch companies with unique products and services. WIN.tv is such an example – they are a branch of a deaf owned and operated interpreting agency, Western Interpreting Network (WIN). While WIN has been around for quite a while, being established in 2005, they just started providing VRS services under the WIN.tv name.
I had the privilege of chatting with the founder and President of the company, Eric Feris, and asked him to tell us about their support for Mac users. It’s all here on video for you to watch, all 1 minute and 24 seconds of it!

In short, WIN.tv knows about supporting Mac users, because they are Mac users themselves. :) They provide Mirial videophone software for Mac users so that they have a fully featured videophone for Mac OS X.
Many thanks, Eric, for telling us about WIN.tv’s support for Mac users! We wish you and your business the best of luck!

Eric Feris is an old friend of mine, and WIN provides a very nice VRS service.
Most important for me, they are Deaf-owned. FUBU!
