Last year a self-guided tour was added to view those parts of the Fair that were on the Grid. Today, that tour is being re-written and expanded. So far, only the first stop is finished and I am hoping for feed-back and suggestions.At each tour stop, when the visitor touches the Tour Stop Stand, they are presented with a Notecard which can be saved to their inventory or just simply read and not saved. Once saved, the text can be copied and pasted in to any word-processing program or text editing program and saved to compile a synopsis of the Fair for later use.
In addition to the Tour Notecards, there are also Educational Stands whose Notecards tell about specific events or displays.The Tour begins in front of the most familiar part of the Administration Building where both a Tour Notecard and Educational Notecard are presented. The Educational Stand also has a "Touch for audio presentation" button which when touched plays "Dawn of a New Day".
Here's what's new: On the Tour Stand is another audio presentation button which gives the option to open a browser window and plays an mp3 audio version of the entire Notecard text. The audio was created using a program called Natural Reader.
Here is a link to the Tour audio file: Notecard 1 audio file. Let me know what you think.
More to come...soon!
