Hi Cearbhall,

I am on Linkedin. I was forced to sign up last year--well, not forced, but the organisation I was working for wanted to create a group on it with all the staff members. However, I have always found it a pain to use with JAWS. As you say, there are so many links and it takes ages to find what you are looking for, and I have stopped using it.

Subject: [vicsireland] Is LinkedIn any use?


Hi,

I wonder is anyone on the list using LinkedIn?

I have been trying for years to use it with JAWS and with NVDA without any luck. I can log in OK but then I have a sea of links which throw me off completely. For me it is a useless exercise. Am I the only one?

I really need to be involved in the fifteen discussions to which I am linked but have never been able to do so.

I would love to hear if you are having any luck.




All the best,


Cearbhall
