Fred's Head is an accessible, on-line catalog of useful tips, techniques, and resources for the blind and visually impaired. The heart of this catalog is drawn from the experience of APH's Fred Gissoni; the subjects covered range from the practical-- using old greeting cards for braille notepaper, to the esoteric-what blind people experience when they dream. There is a form for submitting questions not already covered, and new articles are constantly being added.
