Hi Mellisa,

Google Talk is accessible via notetakers if you have one.

Hi, Mellisa,
  As far as I know, Google Talk is not very accessible (I have 
given
the program several tries with JAWS over the years).  If the 
community
college is looking for an accessible instant messaging program, I
would recommend AIM, which can link with the user's gmail account 
so
it basically functions like Google Talk.  I have also heard of 
other
blind people using an IM client called Miranda, although from my
understanding its set-up can be somewhat complicated.  Hope this 
helps!
   Katie

 Hi has anyone used google talk with a screen reader?
 I have been asked to find out how accessible it is.  The 
community college
 is thinking of using it to conduct chats for their online 
courses.
 Thank you in advance.
