Okay, gang, I found Google's main phone number. It's 650-623-0000. For those of you with Skyte or unlimited long distance who don't mind being placed on hold forever, you can give them a call a register your complaint about the lack of accessibility on the Search Settings page. I could not find any email address for their customer support. They are obviously not very consumer friendly.

And exactly how do you contact Google?  I haven't been able to find any
contact information for them anywhere.  No email address or phone number.
When you visit their contact page, you are then directed to their help
center, but this provide no email addresses or phone numbers.  You just go
around in circles and eventually give up in frustration.  Oh, I did find a
page for praising a specific Google product, but notfor criticizing it.
Very sneaky.  Obviously, they are not interested in hearing user feedback or
complaints. If anyone has found Google's email address or phone number,
please post it for the rest of us.

Has anyone contacted google about this though?  They are the people
who can make the changes in the end.

That page is the one where I am not getting results any longer, too bad
because I liked the simplified interface for my work computer.

I've been following the gripes being expressed here about the regular
search
at google.com with JAWS and all the google annoyances that google thrusts
in
your face at google.com. so why even bother with google.com when u can
still
very effectively and equally thoroughly use the accessible google search
page that is a delight to this day to use with JAWS.

Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] a Google search work around

When I am home regular Google is fine, however, at work I loved the
Accessible version, it was quick and fast and I did not have to spend a
long
time trying to find where to start reading, did not have to see adds and
got
pages that usually read to me right away if that was what I needed.  I
used
it all the time for medications, cancer trials, medical equipment, terms I
was not familiar with and need to see a bit more detail sometimes to be
sure
I was hearing the dictator correctly.  Now I hate having to use the
regular
page at work, takes a lot longer and sometimes I get pages that just do
not
open or read for me.  I really would like Accessible back for work at
least.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] a google search work around

When using google to perform a search sometimes when typing nothing gets
written in the edit field. This can be frustrating but a work around that
seems to work for me is to temporarily switch to the "view google in
mobile"
link and then switch back. Then at least for a while the problem goes away
only to return again periodically. (smile) I like the regular google
because
the page shows much more info.
