[nabs-l] Google Calendar and Docs

[Ashley Bramlett]

Hi,
google docs aren't accessible. As for calendar, if outlook sincs
with google calendar, that might be an idea. Otherwise, perhaps, you and the 
staff can use something more accessible.

My coworkers just love their Google calendars. I have found them to be
partially accessible. I can make appointments, but I cannot create new
calendars, share them, or switch calendar views independently. I have
similar troubles when I use my phone. One coworker shared her
calaendar with me, and now I get reminders that she has set for her
own appointments that aren't even mine which is annoying. I am also
unable to differentiate her appointments from mine as the only view I
can access right now is the comprehensive view of my calendars. I have
done quite a bit of exploring, and a lot of the options such as
settings just don't activate when I press space or enter on them. I
have even tried right clicking them.

I am curious if there are any applications like Outlook that could
sync with my Google calendars that would allow me more accessibility.
Or if there is a more accessible Google interface. I have clicked a
link that supposedly changes the view to optomize accessibility, but
in my opinion, unlike the awesome standard view on the GMail
interface, this really didn't do anything.

Also, I am curious about Google Docs. I need to do more exploring, but
any advice is appreciated.

Thanks.
