Slightly OT: One Drive and Sky Drive
Hello Listers, Is anyone here using One Drive or Sky Drive? If so, please could you write to me (off list if you prefer), explaining what these programs do, how to use them,whether they are free for use, and whether they are accessible with screenreaders, especially Window-Eyes. My computer technician put these programs on my computer and I wonder whether I should get rid of them. I have Windows 8.1 on my computer with WE 9.5.4. My e-mail address is peter.chi...@gmail.com . ___ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.

Can someone walk me through signing up for this? Do I need a microsoft email address, or can I use my own email address? I believe I can use a phone number. Is that right?
