[nabs-l] Gmail and Google Hangouts

[Cindy Bennett]

Hi,

I use Windows and am interested to hear peoples' preferred method of
using Hangouts. I am still having some trouble with using it as I
still prefer the basic html view of mail, and I have to go to a
separate page to use Hangouts rather than view my mail and chat
conversations at the same time. I also have multiple Gmail accounts
and switch back and forth pretty regularly. I cannot be logged in to
multiple accounts with the basic HTML view, so I am also curious to
hear from anyone who uses the standard view for Gmail and recommends I
begin using that view instead. I use JAWS and NVDA, and I have an
iPhone so was also considering setting up Hangouts there and seeing if
I could get notifications similar to a text when I receive a chat
message.

Most people in my graduate program talk on chat via Google Hangouts
all day including takling about projects and scheduling meetings, and
I would like to be more a part of these conversations.

Thanks,
