Maybe I'm weird, but I don't get this. Perhaps someone can help me understand.
I've noticed the symbol at the left on some blogsites. In particular, on my udda Sista's site, whenever I leave a comment, a secret word appears, and I must type it into the secret word box to leave my comment. I know that it is some kinda security thing, but my site doesn't have it. But, shouldn't I have one? My blogs do contain some pretty deep stuff you know.
What I don't get is how a seeing impaired peson can see that little handicapped graphic, or for that matter, put his cursor into the secret word box in order to imput the set of numbers they hear. And, it also assumes that the sight impaired person is not also hearing impaired? What then?
Wiredlessly awaiting from somewhere for someone to help me with this.
you are very weird.
ReplyDeletethat is for when the typer (not necessarily sight impaired) can not read what they have put into the box because sometimes what is in the box is so fuzzy a normal sighted person can not tell what the characters are. There are computers that work for the blind, even in braille, "saying out" what has been and is being typed. The real question becomes, what if the person is normally sighted, but due to fuzziness of the characters, can't tell what they are AND is deaf????? how will that person be able to "hear" the characters?
you need to get wired.
and the reason you get the box of characters is for security as you are not signed on to blogger.....sign on to leave your comments and you will not have to go through that process. remember that if you become sight/hearing impaired.
Well, thanks Sista. I'm feeling better now, but even my bank doesn't put me throught that.
