[Electronics-talk] Electronics-talk Digest, Vol 36, Issue 9

[Christopher Chaltain]

Depends on what you mean by "accessible". I find that with some 
patience, I can do most anything I need to, but it isn't the most 
enjoyable task in the world. I haven't been there lately, but I jump 
back and forth between Firefox and IE7. Also, when you click on a link, 
often times, some text will appear somewhere else on the screen, so 
after I click on a link, if I'm not taken to a new page, I'll refresh 
the screen and start looking for some new text. Like I said, not a lot 
of fun, but if you're persistent, patient and you really want to use 
Facebook then you can find a way. There's also a page on tips for 
Facebook accessibility at http://www.facebook.com/help.php?page=440 and 
a text-only mobile version of Facebook at  (http://m.facebook.com). 
where you obviously can't do everything, but you can do some of the most 
common tasks.
