David is one of the technology instructors at the Carroll Center for the Blind, and I had three very full days of instruction with him earlier this summer. Even if you are a proficient screen reader user, David probably knows alternate ways of performing the same task, some of them maybe even faster and easier. I already bought his new book, because I want to learn NVDA.

Here's the Tech Talk info:

Tek Talk welcomes David Kingsbury, an Assistive Technology Instructor at The Carroll Center for the Blind. Topic: David Kingsbury will discuss his new book: “When One Web Browser Is Not Enough: A Guide for Windows Screen Reader Users.”

Time: 8:00 pm Eastern.
David Kingsbury, an Assistive Technology Instructor at The Carroll Center for the Blind in Massachusetts, has recently written a book entitled “When One Web Browser Is Not Enough: A Guide for Windows Screen Reader Users.” Published by the Carroll Center, the book is intended to help JAWS, NVDA, and Narrator users to effectively use the four leading web browsers - Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, and Microsoft Edge - in ways that build on the strengths of each of them.

During the August 24 Tek Talk episode, he will discuss:
• His current work as an assistive technology instructor.
• Why he wrote the book.
• Brief overview of tools and techniques covered in the book, and
• Some of his favorite tools that create synergies between the browsers.
The book is available in Word format for $20. If you are interested in ordering a copy, go to:
