This description may be outdated, but it does not give much information about how to actually use the screen reader. It does show a video, but a detailed instruction list might be more meaningful to users who are interested in the software.

The information or description may be outdated because it referred to something in 2008. The video was nice but maybe something that can be read or printed out would help also.

New information and communications technologies can improve the quality of life for people with disabilities, but only if such technologies are designed from the beginning so that everyone can use them. Given the explosive growth in the use of the World Wide Web for publishing, electronic commerce, lifelong learning and the delivery of government services, it is vital that the Web be accessible to everyone.
