The Qube, spelled with a Q, and Chicken Nugget are two clients that are popular among blind Twitter users. There is also an accessible Twitter web site at www.easychirp.com
If you have a smart phone, there are several apps that act as clients. For the iPhone, blind folks seem to like Twitterific, Tweet list, and the native Twitter app. The Twitter web site has become much more accessible than it used to be, and there is a whole list of keyboard hot keys.

So, I am now at least sort of using the Twitter account I created a number of years ago. I have yet to actually Tweet, but I have retweeted and followed some users. I have heard, though, that Twitter is much easier to participate in with a screen reader if one uses a client instead of just going to the site. Of course, I will need to be sure that whichever client I try will work well with Window eyes. So, I ask the list members, which are the best for users of Window eyes? Who knows, I might actually create a Facebook page next. Thanks, Chris If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
