> networking sites so that you can decide which, if any, you wish to join.
> Anna Dresner gives you enough information to get started; she describes
> how these sites work right now and gives you some idea about the sorts
> of things you can do on them. Anna offers commands and strategies for
> navigating these sites with screen readers, and includes pointers for
> handling specific situations using JAWS, Window-Eyes and System Access,
> and VoiceOver on the Mac.

> Note: The DAISY version of this book will work with any version of
> FSReader, which comes free with every installation of JAWS.
