[Perform-Talk] computer questions

[Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter]

Personally, I don't know anyone who uses Skype, sighted or blind. And
outside of the NFB, I only know of businesses that use Zoom. All that said,
each are teleconference tools available.

hello Justin,
I didn't know that skype was still usable for the blind. yes, I knew of the
keystrokes already for it. I see that many blind people don't use it anymore
imo! so, are there any blind people who still use skype or not?

also, to my question on zoom yes, I knew it was completely accessible.
many of my friends who are blind have used it and, some of them are already
here on this list. as for the keystrokes for using zoom if you find them
that would be great! so, all which do most of you use either zoom vs skype?

thanks again for the information and, I will talk to you soon!


hugs,
amy
