[Nfb-science] Google: A Question

[Christine Szostak]

Hi All,
  I was just curious about something. On another list, some here I believe may be on that list, there has been a fair amount of talk and debating as to  whether Google Calendar is completely inaccessible or not without any usable vision. I am totally blind and have had high success with completely independently using the calendar for the past three or so years. Thus, I was curious of others experiences with the application. Granted, I am referring to the use of it on a standard laptop or desktop, it may very well differ for those attempting to use it on their handheld devices.

  I know this is not directly science related, but I bring it up here for two reasons:
1)  Its relevance to vision loss.
2)  The fact that the place I use it is in my research (e.g., our lab, as well as several other  labs I am associated with) use it regularly for research-related activities (e.g., scheduling testing, scheduling facilities availability...).
Many thanks,
Christine
