Hi Scott,
This article is particularly android focussed but it's a great jumping off
point for being in the right frame of mind when designing applications. Maybe
it will be some use.

Hi all,
I recently came to know about a site called blindmicemegamall.com
The site contains some really good audio described Hollywood movies.
I even tried a couple of them and the quality of the audio description was

Hello,
On which link did you find the movies? I cannot seem to find them on this new
site. :/

Hello Listers, I have just talked to the developer of FaceDekk, he has asked me
to post a message and say that the beta will be ready for testing next week.

the iPhone/iPad/iPod that is very easy to use and the develo
Hi,
Isn't there an app already called FaceDekk? I'm venturing to say yes, seeing
as I have it, and it's accessible. It's the most accessible facebook app
I've seen, so why does there need to be another app with the same name?

Dear Listers,
I know that some of you have been using Menu Tab Pro for Facebook. I

The BlindMiceMegaMall.com site is a legitimate e-commerce site. The movie
vault portion of that site is an illegal file sharing website that has been

Hi everyone!
In mail, using Lion, classic view, I just created a bunch of new mailboxes and
then added rules which send all my list messages to the appropriate mailboxes.
That was easy and works like a charm. However, just one snag. I navigate with
up and down arrow in the mailboxes table till I
P.S. I realized that when I choose the mailbox to explore in the mailboxes
table, then tab to the messages table, for the first message, it will read
subject and who it was from. But when I down arrow to the next message, all I
hear is image, unread.
Sorry about leaving out this detail. Thanks.
Hi Daniel and Kevin,
Thanks for bringing this to my notice.
I will refrain from discussing about this site in future.
I was apparently not aware that their movie vault is run illegally.
Thanks again for letting me know.
Cheers,
Rahul

Can you explain further.
I didn't know you could open growl using the growl on the applications list.
Where do I find it in system preferences. After that, what do I do to set it
up to notify me about twitter and skype?

Hi all,
Something in the Mac world I find frustrating, is how often Voiceover is
bounced back to the top of webpages.
1. Is there a setting where I can stop this from happening?

page?

Funny, I have never had a screen reader return me to a site exactly where I

So, you have the option to set a web spot via vo-keys-command-right bracket or

Hi there!
In the messages table, I can VO-right arrow, I can find subject, sender, etc.
But before I created all of these other mailboxes, VO read all of the status
items each time I'd arrow through the messages column. When I first open mail
and it reads in my inbox, it read all of the fields.
I was also unaware of this. My understanding was that some sort of
loophole allowed legal distribution of the content. I am glad to know
otherwise.

Quick nav is definitely off. Everything read just fine until I created a bunch
of new mailboxes. When I select a new mailbox, and go back to the messages
table, all fields are read for the first message, but not for any of the rest
of the messages. I can VO-right arrow to the rest of the fields,

Data detechors in mail indicate a field with some additional functionality. It
might just be a link, or an address or a date.
If you click or contextually click on the item you might find choices like:
Open link behind mail.
Create address book entry
Create a ical event.

A couple other points.
1. THere is an option to have the VoiceOVer cursor jump to where the keyboard
cursor is. So for example on Google main page it would be in the search box.
2. Perhaps you are using an older Mac OS or not using webkit? In the older
systems where I am not quite sure what is
Jonathan,
VO says messages table, and I just use arrow keys to move up and down the list.
I hear everything when I just tab into the table. Hitting left and right arrows

discovery. If I have two messages in a mailbox, all

This is excellent info, but, isn't it a double edge sword? I mean, if someone
