Visitors to the live WCD webcast will be able to post questions to interviewees and participate in Q&A via e-mail, providing a fully interactive forum for sharing of information.

“As a long-time developer of streaming media content for those with disabilities we are excited about being selected to webcast this important WCD event again, as we did last year when we used this well-attended show to launch the AT508 channel,” commented Dave Gardy, Chairman and CEO of TVWorldwide.com. “Thanks to the WCD launch, the AT508 channel has grown rapidly over the last year with compelling webcast content on important disability issues, featuring the incisive and uncensored commentary of highly-respected columnist John Williams who coined the phrase ‘assistive technology’. We again expect a huge audience and we are preparing our servers to accommodate the WCD event webcast.”

“We have strived to create a unique forum where there is something valuable for everyone who attends, whether in-person or on-line, “remarked Steve Ianuzzi, Chairman of the WCD, who’s son Matthew is a special needs child with Angelman Syndrome. “The World Congress and Exposition on Disabilities is pleased once again to be working with AT508.com and TVWorldwide. In just a year since AT508 launched at our last show, they have become the leading Internet media entity in covering live events and featuring interactive programming on issues of interest to the community of people with disabilities,” continued Ianuzzi.

The event will be archived for viewing at AT508.com and www.wcdexpo.com . Participants should have the free Real Video Player installed prior to the event and should log on by 11:30 AM ET on Thursday, September 18. The webcast will run from 11:45 PM-4 PM ET on Thursday, Sept. 18, and Friday, Sept. 19 with hours to be announced for Saturday, September 20.
