Hi Paul.
The first thing to consider is how you will get past the verification box
that appears when you set up your account. it's one of those enter the
characters in the image into the box. The most straight forward method if
you have no sighted assistance is probably to email facebook about it.
there is info on the web site.
Otherwise you could install firefox and download the Webvisum plug in
which
can solve these captures as they call them, putting the result on your
windows clipboard for pasting. You do need to set up an account for this
and log into it for this to work.
Once set up there are lots of things you can do but I only send people
messages, update my status and set up my profile.
for this and other things it is best to use the site http://m.facebook.com
This is the mobile version of the site and it is generally more
accessible.
Note that when searching for people you can search for both name and email
which can be useful when searching

Graham

Subject: [jaws-uk] facebook query
Hi all,
whilst I don't use social networking sites and have not had any real
incentive to do so, I am thinking of using facebook as I kno some people
on
there.
Would be interested to hear from others on this list to see whether they
use
it or not.
Also how accesible is it to a JAWS user.
Any useful info about using facebook either through this list or directly
to
me would be apreciated.
Thanks
Paul.
