Anywhere with Jaws and there are links, all you have to do is insert f7,
bring up links and enter---or arrow to link, applications key and open link

> Of course, I'm going to focus on as many free resources as I can, such

> them using JAWS. Of course, we also have many iOS users using iPhones.
> If you provide training particularly on JAWS and iOS products I'd love
> to mention you. I'm also looking for people who are able to remotely
> assist in troubleshooting, such as my computer won't open such and such
> a program or I keep getting such and such errors when I try to perform
> XYZ. I realize this can be a challenging set of issues to troubleshoot
> remotely and, at times, providing remote assistance for such problems
> may be just about impossible, particularly if the computer is barely
> usable with speech.
> If you'd like me to mention your services, please email me offlist with
> your name, company name if you have one, contact info, what services you
> provide and your rates.
> Many years ago, Dean Martineau compiled such a list and the National
> Braille Press put it into a directory called "One on One." I think it's
> about time that we saw version 2 of that excellent resource. I think
> that I still have that book but, as it was written around the year 2000
