  • 01:02 @thematerial At least from what I see anyway, can't click anywhere to stream the song. #
  • 01:05 Everyone should go to ravelinks.com /forumsand download DJ Milo's mix. Well, because it's awesome. No, this is not E3 Milo. Sorry. #
  • 01:05 It also might be available at milo.happyhardcore.com, not sure. #

  • 07:43 @BlindTwit Yeah, that's what kinda worries me. Typing. That's why I'm not all hyper about the iPhone yet. Haven't even seen it. #
  • 07:44 RT @RockBandAide: OMG!!! Save another 16% off the Gamestop deals with the code CAG16!!!!! RB2 Special Edition bundle for $80! #
  • 07:45 @serrebi It should support them. The mac does. But I'll wait to see what other people's successes and failors are. #
  • 07:47 RT @SlauBeSharp It's amazing how some ppl can write about a product before it comes out with absolutely no experience with it & criticize it #
  • 08:00 Hey guys. Found an article on features of snow Leopard you may be interested in reading... www.apple.com/macosx/accessibility/ #
  • 08:01 Oh, and BTW. Morning Twitter. #

  • 19:49 @Lioncourt Do you know if accessibility was notified? #
  • 19:50 RT @steveofmaine: "National Federation of the Blind Files Complaint Against Utah State Office of Education" ( bit.ly/YrRVa ) #
  • 19:51 RT @steveofmaine: This is very very cool. RT @krister63: Vo users, Top sites appear to be accessible in latest #Safari. #
  • 21:33 Is anyone gonna scan PE: Dark Art and put it on Bookshare or something? Wanna read the novel at least. #
  • 21:35 I could just immagine my mom reading it to me, but than she may have permenant nightmares she never will be able to escape. #
  • 21:36 Lol #
  • 21:37 Well, not my mom but was just stating someone with sight as an example. #
  • 22:14 My Daily Twittascope - bit.ly/2fwsp #
  • 22:24 Wow, this article is wrong, because it says the following, which isn't true: #
  • 22:24 Safari is the only Web browser that works with VoiceOver for browsing the Internet. #
  • 22:24 There's more. Shrug. #
  • 22:29 @steveofmaine Completely agree. #
  • 22:33 I feel that VoiceOver takes lots of getting used to, however I do not think it is cumbersome to use. #
  • 22:34 The only reason why it is cumbersome to use is because Wesley Majerus didn't take the time to learn it completely. #
  • 22:35 Than bashes Apple for inaccurate documentation. #
  • 22:36 I mean, don't get me wrong, I use both OSs, but I know a false article when I see one. We don't need all the "leaving menus" crap in VO. #
  • 22:37 If you press enter on a menu item, it's obvious that if it's not a submenu it leaves the menu. #
  • 22:39 Kinda gree on the spell checking thing, however. Though, sometimes I like the way apple does it. #
  • 22:40 Makes me correct the words I need, I can skip the wrest if the dictionary doesn't know it or whatever. #
  • 22:40 Just a different approach. #
  • 22:40 That, once again, people need to get used to. This isn't windows and I bet sighted people do it the same way on the mac. #
  • 22:47 Here's a one sentence summary the nfb VO article. Voiceover does not work in the manner I am used to, therefore it does not work properly. #
  • 22:48 Was meant to be an RT by @DHSDarcy, couldn't fit the RT. #
  • 22:50 @DhsDarcy Hmm. I agree, but. He seems so sure of himself. That's what bothers me. #
  • 22:51 @DhsDarcy I think they think that the Mac won't be a viable access platform either now or in the future. #
  • 23:01 @DhsDarcy I highly doubt they could do anything to you, no matter what. I doubt it'd be illegal. #
  • 23:02 @DhsDarcy In fact, I'd love to see a podcast like that and the interesting debates that'd come from it. #
  • 23:09 @serrebi I think that's Rodgers problem, though, not an apple issue? I guess it is in a sense but I'd think it's more on the provider side. #
More soon.
