Seems to me this service has great potential for kids with learning disabilities. Might enable a sort of skimming for blind people as well.
This should enable schools with IE-only policies to access our site. We should test this and add whatever flags are necessary to Hark.

prepend domain-search "cs.unc.edu";

I've been talking with Diane and Anish about ideas for simple sound games that will help children who are blind learn to navigate. I'm writing these notes to help us get on the same page in our understanding about what would be helpful and what might be possible. Of course, much more could be done with the amazing technology Anish has in hand but I'm thinking very simply here to hopefully enable implementation in the web browser so anyone can play online.
