>From the chat going on here more of us don't have a clue on getting around  
or what it is all about.

I am totally happy on waiting for you  or if someone knows enough  about it 
then we can have them do a chat and Sara do a bacvk up chat.

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but I navigate visually because my  version of JAWS is so ludicrously out of
date it doesn't read the internet  anymore.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?
