The Arrogant Worms are crowdfunding another album. Sadly, it’s their farewell album. Well, their first farewell album, anyhow. We want to put out a new album for our 25th year but we NEED YOUR HELP!

I’ve been hearing about a funding project for something called Dictation Bridge, which is supposed to make it so people using NVDA or whatever screen-reader can hear what they’re typing when using dictation software like Dragon.

I just wanted to give an update on our buddy Tim. I don’t think he did very well with his GoFundMe page, but he managed to get the money together, and look at those results. Tim, you rock.
