Hi Robert. I've seen petitionsabout myspace which is eliminating
capcha's for it's users though you need a cellphone and it doesn't eliminate
the initial capcha. Conversations have also been held with Facebook and I'm
not sure what has happened with twitter. I did see an application for
twitter that is suposed to make it "more blind friendly and if I can find it
I will post to the list. The capcha problem is way beyond social networks
and the firefox program will work for some capcha's not all.
Today I was submitting a note to a site for website submission after having
submitted to the directory via it's submission form. They contacted me and
told me because of the large amount of spam they receive it was necessary
for me to use the contact form on the front page.
I wrote my note and was ready to send when from beyond the blue came the
following:
Enter the verification code as it is shown in the box below. This helps
prevent automated
submissions.

SubmitWonderful! Guess I have to snag a sighted visitor as many of these
are put together in such a way that my wife who has some sight in one eye
can't read thWWe need some way that permits any screen reader using any
browser to read the capcha's or something. An employer might not want two
browsers on his network and he might like iE 8.
If my job includees such things as search engine submission
Oh well back to the unemployment line/maybe.

Oh did I suggest getting rid of protection schemes? Uh, no, I didnt.
What I did suggest however, and I will rephrase it, is that if these
developers who cook up these schemes were to put on blindfolds, the
Internet might be a bit more blind friendly.
But Jim, if you rather do all the adapting in all areas, have at it.
In a backward sense, it s the easier path to follow.
By the way, no need to preach about Internet safety. I am all too
aware of the pitfalls and traps and all that await the unwary. LOL
