Hi Paul,

I thought I'd interject an adendum to your explanation of a capcha.

Yes, one form of a capcha is a distorted text image that the user is expected to intrprat and then type into a text box. But there are two other forms of capchas: 1) numeric (text), 2) alpha-numeric. (text). Additionally, There are often, but not always, audio options of those permutations.


the problem I've run into with capchas is that most are so difficult to decifer that even the fully sighted have trouble with them. And the audio alternatives are rarely any better. Unless there's something I don't know, this is not necessary, but I suspect most web masters out there just don't understand the challenge this creates for the VIP and profoundly blind users.

Blessings,

Bill Tessore

A capcha is a thing where you have to match the pictures at the
right spots.  Stupid, right? I know because I tried to help my
friend creat an email account and he couldn't do it on his
braillenote.

I don't think you can just create a twitter with your IPhone.  I
couldn't
anyway.

Exactly, you'll need to use a computer or other device to create
your
account.

I needed assistance with signing up for twitter.
