love,
Jenni oh and btw if you have any idea how i can get this link out to more sighted people lemme know
You can sign up and add people easily with both sites. Maybe I'm missing something but I can't think of anything that isn't accessible.
the whole damn thing, music sites on myspace a lot of the apps in facebook, i mean crap who wants a sight where all they hear is this and that frame and this and that poorly coded flash object and then the flash bogs a system down and connection because they have to have so much crap load that once it locked my whole system up and i almost lost everything
Lots of times, the apps on Facebook aren't written by the owners of the site, so if you find an app hard to use, try and find out who wrote it and contact them. I have very few problems on Facebook, but Myspace is a fucking mess and I can't understand why so damn many people like it. Sure you can add music to your profile but if I want music i got 50000 plus songs on my drive, plus ones I haven't even ripped yet, so I can listen to music that way too. and the quality of the music on myspace sucks as well. I get the idea, and yes i know there are different layouts. But I've already got a LJ and a Facebook, so I really don't need a myspace, at least I've never seen much use for it.
And from the way that this is going, I can say this: And I'm just saying my personal opinion about this fact: Myspace will never be accessible. Its called it's a sighted world and no one gives a shit about the blind people.
that is where you are wrong, myspace would make themselves more screen reader friendly if blind people got up and bitched about it until they couldnt do anything but listen.
myspace is accessable for me. the only problem is when you need to update your profile you have to do a security measure thing those things were you type the letters or whatever... but those can be fixed, they could just have an audio one, but yeah...
Myspace is accessible if you don't have all those random photo bucket links all over your profile and all that flash content and music.
i agree with post 7, if they will get an audio captcha, i'll rejoin them. I hav an LJ, which i haven't updated in months, a facebook that's accessible for me, but I canceled my myspace a while back, because A. I kept gtting hacked, and B. I kept having to put in those images everytime i wanted to do womething to my profile.
