Official Jaws word on skype and its retirement

Hi all,

Skype is not officially retired, just the older skype that we’re used to. In this blog post I’ll link to, Jonathan Mosen of Freedom Scientific talks about what Jaws is going to do for us in the August release including turning off the virtual cursor. I’ve used it briefly in this manner, and its a bit interesting. I did not know it was used within a chrome type of interface.

The scripts will be updated, and in jaws 2019, they will better improve the scripts further to give us more control.

To read more, Here is information from the freedomscientific blog from Jonathan for you all to read.

I just want to take the opportunity to pass this along while I have the opportunity, and I’ll make sure to mention it in the next technology podcast that is released across the network.

Thanks for reading, and thanks for your continued support.
