First I want to say what a very helpful informative posting. Thanks much.
Secondly, I actuly wanted to just send my thanks directly to sender using
Jaws key shift r but even though it says direct to sender it seems to go to
the jaws list.

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] facebook mobile and jaws?
I use Facebook every day and dislike the mobile site. I am mainly
interested in locating the posts my friends make each day and the regular
home page offers the easiest navigation since using h for heading takes me
right down through all the posts. If the post is a comment it reads it
immediately. If it says just the friend's name then it is usually some
application game or photo link that I ignore. So I can zip through the
postings by using the h. Usually this list is fairly short and does not
include all the recent posts so I do a Jaws search for "older posts" and it
shows more. I like to remember to do the older posts link first so i don't
have to h through the ones I have just read. But it is so quick to jump
through using the h that you can skim right over friends whose posts don't
interest you particularly. In Jaws 11 there is also a hide link that
appears after the person's name that will hide the current posts for that
person. This is good for people who don't post status updates but only game
stuff. and other things uninteresting to me
This heading navigation does not work to locate posts on the mobile page
and I find myself having to arrow down line by line. And it does not
include the total list of posts, I think.
Another benefit to the regular home page is that there are several other
choices for how to view the posts. I usually just use jaws search to
locate the following links: News feed is the first one and the default I
think. It has many posts that Facebook deems most important. But I want
them all so I use some of the other links as well. Under the News feed
link is a link with the name of my current city, Elizabethton, TN. When I
click on this one I can see all of my own recent updates and wall to wall
posts. This is handy since I am not always sure if something I have
attempted has actually been posted and this link posts them promptly. So
if it doesn't show up here I go back and do it again. The next link is
Pages. This allows you to see only posts from groups or people you are a
fan of. I can get all the back posts for my Hungry Girl, Kim Komando,
Never Say Diet, etc. The next choice is Status updates. This is a really
good list since it only includes the actual updates friends have written
and not the who friended who or played such and such in Farmville or
whatever. There is also a choice for Live feed and I think this includes
all posts without the Facebook choosing what is important. That is my
guess, anyway since this list is longer. I locate these lists by using
Jaws search. I don't worry about notifications and such too much since
messages to my inbox, friend requests and comments on my posts are emailed
to my regular email and I find them there. Every now and then I check the
notifications area to see who sent me "gifts" I can't see and usually
ignore these. I try to avoid most Facebook apps now that there are some
virus problems there according to Kim Komando, the digital goddess. By
using the h for heading navigation I find that I skip right over the pesky
adds which appear on the home page and skipping them is a blessing.
I have also put desktop shortcuts for Facebook home, for my profile page
and for the mobile page so I can switch back and forth very easily by
using windows d to go to the desktop and f to find which Facebook page I
want to open next.
I hope this helps by adding another option different from the popular
opinion on the list which seems to be that the mobile Facebook is the only
way to go.

Ok, try this site.
http://lite.facebook.com
and see if it works. It's a combination of regular facebook and the
mobile
site. Seems to work pretty good.
