[nabs-l] watch out! it's another ridiculous update from Google

[Cindy]

And it comes full circle. The add-on to Google Chrome is called chromevox. First you have to download the browser, then you have to navigate to the Google play store and install chromevox. There is a tutorial, but I have not gotten through it. I know that some people could reach some level of success with it, but I do not know the details. I became so irritated with it. I tried to figure out some solutions for my job since everyone prefers to use Google applications, however I realized that I was wasting a lot of work time trying to figure things out that my colleagues were willing to do with me on dropbox. It is quite annoying though, but I do hate saying that things are automatically inaccessible. I wish that some more people who are using Google Chromevox would speak up and give some tips. I just didn't find the interface to be that intuitive, and my life Didn't depend on it since the grad students in my lap were willing to work with me. But I do know that not using Google apps annoys the crap out of them, and if I can't even use mail, that will be even worse. I will look at my Gmail interface now see if I can find a similar message. Until then, I would love to hear more feedback about chromevox.

> Hi Alleha, this is Helga. I'm sorry for asking you these silly questions. I'm not actually a person who knows everything about computer, even though I use it in order to read my emails and to do my college studies. But I was just wondering, What do you mean when you say that for those using Internet Explorer as your browser and using any Google-related app, your browser will soon no longer be supported? I just would like to know since I'm not a person who knows everything about computers. Just to let you know, I actually use windows 7 and 8 computers operating systems. Is this problem will affect my BrailleNote device since I use the Braille display of it, and my computers operating systems? I just would like to know. By the way, could you explain me this? Thanks so much for listening to me and God bless!! :)
