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>

Subject: Facebook accessibility - Did you know

Hi all,

Has anyone else tried the accessible version of Facebook's site. You can find it at: <http://m.facebook.com>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.
