DeafCode Launches Captionfish.com, a Captioned Film & Movies Search Engine

May 2009

Editor: Folks with hearing loss who like to go to movies are probably familiar with fomdi.com, which has been helping us locate captioned movies for years. Now DeafCode has launched captionfish.com, which provides a similar service.

Here's their press release.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

DeafCode, LLC. announces the launch of its first beta of Captionfish.com. It is the first website to integrate an Instant CC Film Finder(tm), which provides immediate and effortless custom results within 30 miles of a chosen location, refreshed on each visit to Captionfish.com. Results for up to 7 days in the future and 60 miles away are available at the click of a button. "The DeafCode Team was inspired to create Captionfish because of the need to find a comprehensive list of captioned movies in one place," said Chris Sano, DeafCode, LLC. Co-Founder. "We've received a tremendously positive response and feel Captionfish has the potential to become one of the most popular online destinations for the deaf and hard-of-hearing. We are adding more theaters every day and will continue to enhance the website's functionality with new features - many driven by our visitors' feedback."
