Re: Internet Explorer will no longer be supported in November
Hope Williamson
Right, but the ridiculous people who won't stop using IE because they're too picky to find another RSS reader should probably give up RSs in the first place. I mean, if MS decided to remote wipe IE from everyone's computers right now I wouldn't be all that sad about it. It would be a major privacy violation, so I'd be unhappy in that way, but otherwise I'd have to say yay it's finally over!!!

Curtis Delzer
I have completed the audio version of the book. Personal Power, the iOS edition, by Michael Feir. In this edition there are over 850 navigation points, and 25 hours and 50 minutes of listening to great information about how to do hundreds of things with your iOS device.
Included are 3 versions. (1) for your NLS player, either the unit from NLS or the app for the IOS and Victor Stream. The NLS player will announce the level types, 1, section, 2, subsection, 3, steps and 4, activity. The Stream will just announce level 1 through 4. https://od.lk/d/NjRfMTgzNTIzNjZf/Personal%20Power%2C%20The%20iOS%20Edition%2C%203gp%20Daisy%20%28for%20nls%20and%20Victor%20Stream.zip -- 2. a Daisy *.mp3 version link for all other players such as the Dolphin easy reader. https://od.lk/d/NjRfMTgzNTIzNjhf/Personal%20Power%2C%20The%20iOS%20Edition%2C%20MP3%20Daisy%20%28for%20players%20as%20the%20Dolphin%20Easy_reader.zip 3. A version which has just 36 *.mp3 files for all others. https://od.lk/d/NjRfMTgzNjUzMThf/Personal%20Power%2C%20The%20iOS%20Edition%2C%20MP3.zip ENJOY!

I guess it depends where you are. BlindAds is suited more to a US market, while I'm on one called Recycle-It which is geared more in the UK. Cheers, Damien.

Re: Internet Explorer will no longer be supported in November

Its good that you made the correction. I haven't generally seen the Komando newsletter make a major error of this type. I've seen some oversimplifications that result in somewhat misleading information.

First, I am in total agreement that people should not be using Internet Explorer unless there's a good reason for doing so. The browser just isn't going to keep up with today's Web and many Web sites won't interact properly with Internet Explorer, if at all, and users will find that their experience with IE will be degraded, crippled or nonexistent. Having said that the Komando article has misquoted the original blog post that it links to. IE is not being retired this November. The blog post states: "Beginning November 30, 2020, the Microsoft Teams web app will no longer support IE 11." The end of support has to do with Teams and other Microsoft 365 apps. While IE's retirement is inevitable the blog post makes it clear that the browser isn't going away totally, at least not now and certainly not this year. The Komando piece is an example of poor and irresponsible journalism. Again, this doesn't mean that I'm encouraging users to stick with IE until its official retirement. Unless you're being forced to use it in a corporate environment or unless you're using a screen reader version that is over ten years old Firefox or a Chromium-based browser will offer greater compatibility with today's Web sites, better performance and equal screen reader compatibility to IE with a far more accessible experience.

Hi. During the 2020 ACB convention the Next Generation affiliate did a presentation on using Google Forms with a screen reader and it seemed quite accessible.

Open your podcast player of choice and go through the recent episodes of ACB Conference and Convention and you will likely find it.
