Free ASL Computer Technology Resources?

AceCaseOR asks: "I work in the computer lab at a community college. In the past I've worked with students who are deaf or mute, and, as I didn't know American Sign Language, I've had to resort to using pen and paper, with occasional gesture. As right now my mother is learning American Sign language, I'm learning some myself. I'm looking for free resources on computer terminology for American Sign Language. Any assistance that can be offered would be appreciated."

There's this thing called Google Search Help also. If the reader follows your link they will get a page of search results containing little or nothing that the author is asking for. A few of the links are little more then collections of links and advertising. Others contain nothing useful if you want to *learn* ASL.

Now pay attention class, using a simple Google search you can find usefull items that the author can use, like: http://www.42explore.com/signlang.htm and http://babel.uoregon.edu/yamada/guides/asl.html.

Really, it is not that we object to sarcasim around here (we seem to thrive on it) but at least make it useful sarcasim.

[Hmmm, this story reminds me I wanted to learn ASL also, that way I might understand what all those other drivers are trying to sign to me on the way home.]

These sites are good starting points...
