[Nfb-krafters-korner] Topic for a Monday Chat or class

Fri Apr 26 00:36:33 UTC 2013

I do agree that we will all have to be aware of the differences, but I do
not think that it will be a big problem.  At this point, I have come across
a person who is sighted and is willing to sit down with me and see if we can
figure out how to navigate Revelry with JAWS.  I will keep you all posted.

I would like to have a chat about navigating ravelry right now, but I don't
know anything about it so I am unable to help. Also, you mentioned that you
have Jaws. I have Window Eyes. When we do this, I think we may have to keep
in mind the different screen reading programs that are being used.

I completely agree, we should have a Ravelry chat. I'm a Ravelry power user,
but I navigate visually because my version of JAWS is so ludicrously out of
date it doesn't read the internet anymore.

But, as you may have seen from my email, I'm getting a new laptop (with the
latest version of JAWS) here in a couple of months.

So, we have a couple of choices, someone else can volunteer to host the chat
so we can have it sooner, or you all can wait for a long time until I get my
new laptop and then I can (gasp) actually host one of these here chat things
I've been organizin'.

Which would you all prefer?
