hi donald. you are correct. it can be kinda daunting to keep track of
the information thrown out by the group.
i don't moderate this group, but, i do blog. so, i'll think about how
to maybe organize such information.
again, it must be understood that the amazon website and the fire
help, tutorials and user manual are loaded with a gold mine of
information.
here is one thing i noticed quite awhile ago, wonder if the name and
description of this group are a bit misleading. the name can't be
changed without breaking the group (at least i don't think so), but,
the description can be. here is what it says.
Visually Impaired Kindle users Group
Group formed to share tips on using Amazon\\\'s Kindle e-readers
accessibility features. Independently moderated, not affiliated with
Amazon.\ \ \ \
for Blind & Low-Vision Users
This group is for blind and vision-impaired users of Amazon\'s Kindle
App for PC with Accessibility App Plug-in. Our purpose is to share
experiences and recommendations for improvements in future upgrades we
would like implemented.
note that amazon has gone way beyond the kindle ereader and the fire
tablet is becoming the go to for those blind and low vision instead of
the kindle ereader. nor do i use the kindle for pc except for
converting with codex.
others mileage may vary, but, that is where i sit.
i joined this group when about 60 were signed-up. and, over a year
went by til i got a post in my email. but, it has grown, and, there
are 116 who are on list currently.
here is the link to the group.

note that you can work your way through the thread of the group posts
with the link archives.
here is the link to archives.

one idea might be that those that post new threads make the subject
line more descriptive. that might help in locating information.
stay well ... william

I want to thank, William, Mary, Loy, Sherry and anyone else whose name I
didn't remember. I really appreciate the info that comes from this list
regarding how to use Kindle products, and specifically Voice View.
I do wish, however, that someone would put together a comprehensive
tutorial or at least a good podcast because I am having difficulty
keeping track of these various bits of information which come from this
list. I thought that Chris G was putting one together, but it has been
months since I heard anything about it.
At any rate, thanks again to all contributors.
Don Roberts
