Google+ gets more sign-language friendly

A new feature on Google+ makes it easier to use sign language over video chats, the company says.
A new feature on Google+ makes it easier to use sign language over video chats, the company says.


(CNN) -- A video-chat feature called Hangouts is one thing that sets Google+ apart from Facebook and Twitter.

When lots of people are chatting together in a Hangout, only one person "has the floor" at a time -- and you can tell who this person is because their video feed is by far the largest on your computer screen. Until recently, Google's computers used microphone volume to determine who got to be in control of the conversation. So the person yelling the loudest got control of the virtual chat.

One problem: What if you're using sign language?

Americans’ Attitudes Ten Years After 9/11


For the ten-year anniversary of 9/11, the Pew Research Center for the People and the Press released its report Ten Years after 9/11: United in Remembrance, Divided Over Policies. The report’s findings, based on a survey of 1,509 Americans, revealed that while 9/11 has left a long-lasting impression, it has divided the country in its perception on the United States’ response to the attacks.
“Ten years after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, the events of that day retain a powerful hold on the public’s collective consciousness… Yet the public continues to be divided over many of the anti-terrorism policies that arose in the wake of Sept. 11,” wrote the authors of the report.

Why Ground Zero Is Perfect Just as It Is Right Now

By SAM ANDERSONThe tower at ground zero still isn’t finished. For a nation that prefers to be constantly under construction, that seems perfectly fitting.







Mission Unfinished

By JILL ABRAMSONIn the twilight of America’s decade-long, multibillion-dollar intervention, Afghanistan remains highly unstable, the Pakistanis trust us less than ever, and it is not at all clear how “the big things are going to turn out.”



THE 9/11 DECADE - THE PRICE OF THE NEW NORMAL


BEFORE The towers in spring 2001.
In the decade since, most people absorbed 9/11 and moved on,
but there are lingering wisps of its effects everywhere.
