Re: Facebook accessibility - Did you know

Joel,

I'm glad you were able to use this feature of JAWS. There are many more 
features that you might find useful, but I won't try to list them all here. 
Just browse through the JAWS documentation and help files.

  Joel,

  It's all in the JAWS documentation. If you use Say all mode, as Adrian 
attests, the Right Shift key will skip lines as it reads.

  Just give it a try.

    Laura,

    That's perfectly fine and in keeping with standard E-Mail  practices. I can 
easily skip over this information if I need to.

      Laura,

       

      No offense intended, but your email sig, below your message is a *lot* of 
lines to have to listen through with Jaws while waiting to hear just the 
headers of the message to which you're responding. Please, nobody tell me to 
hit escape or delete when I see Laura's name in my Inbox. What if I don't hate 
her? Okay? So let's forget that old saw. Thank you, beloved but sometimes 
short-fused folks.

      The problem with that version, however, is since it's the mobile version, 
most of the applications are not available in it. I'd rather use Twitter.

        I prefer the accessible Facebook site, which seems to work pretty well 
with JAWS. It is much easier to navigate than the regular Facebook site.

          Do you use it Laura? Does it work better for you than the regular, 
more graphical, site? I might have heard about it on this or another list, but 
at the time it filtered through that part of my brain that isn't being used 
unless it is really needed. <grin>

          Hi all,

          Has anyone else tried the accessible version of Facebook's site. You 
can find it at: http://m.facebook.com 
          As more people have asked in training about Facebook I've been trying 
to come up with instructions and quick ways to get places and such. I decided 
to read their help center to see if they mentioned anything about screen 
readers and sure enough they did! I sent this link on to a former client 
yesterday who said she'd been struggling with Facebook for weeks. I had a note 
back from her already this morning saying that she was able to find everything 
she'd been looking for on the regular site using this accessible version. It 
would be interesting to hear other feedback on this.
