Hi Sandy, I understand in some situations Tap Tap See has worked for captchas. I rarely run into this on an iPhone because I still very much do do these sort of things on my PC. The iPhone is great, but it can’t compete when it comes to productivity and efficiency fpr certain tasks with what I can do on my PC with Jaws and I work on a computer pretty much all day long so it’s not like I am going out of my way to use it.
Yes, the vacuuming was fine, took me all of 20 minutes to do my entire house. Maybe I’ll come visit you, I can probably find a cheap off-season flight to Ireland for less than what one of these things costs and then I can steel yours *smile*.

I thought you were trying to solve a capture on your iphone. I wonder if one could do this with BME using a screenshot? If not, perhaps Tap Tap See? Did you enjoy your vacuuming? I did!!!

It is not the most efficient way to do a captcha as it takes a few minutes to get somebody on the line, but when I did this I had spent some considerable time going through the configuration and filling out some information on a web page so I didn’t want to let that all go and redo it in Firefox where I have Webvisum installed which can solve a captcha in about 10 or 15 seconds.

Would I need to take a screen-shot? Also, I have often found that while I am seeking assistance with captures, I get timed-out. So, would be most interested to find out more. As for visiting locals: we too have had sheep and, one time, 18 young and boisterous bullocks! They left cow shaped wholes in our hedges and were running around and around the house like football hooligans! My old, much beloved, guide dog's best friend was a fox, who regularly stole his Frizbies, and there is a badger who never wants to be sociable.

It is said that moose/elks/wopitee I think that they are the same, were released in the Fjordland National Park last century or perhaps, in the 19th, and hunters report that they do come across elk sign from time to time and there are even some very blurry photographs that could be anything: rather like the Saskwash myth: sorry about the spelling * big Foot. My dog has a unhealthy interest in sheep and, in his view, they are nothing other than dog tucker, so having them roaming about in * his backyard would not be good for their wellbeing.

After it rang for a bit it just sat there and I think said something about connecting, but it took probably a good 2 or 3 minutes before very nice young lady with good English but a Russian accent picked up. She read the captcha for me in no time and while I was close, I was a bit wrong as she was from the Ucraine and not Russia. If Be my Eyes doesn’t work you can also try the app “Crowdvis” or “Crowdviz” not totally sure how it’s spelled. Sheep are not a problem here, but I usually do have some moose in my backyard in the fall/early winter. They stop by to eat the apples on my apple tree and more rarely a black bear may wonder in as well.

I needed a pair of eyes in the head of a person who could tell me if I had some sheep in the backyard. The program made a connection, but there was no reply. >From listening to the call sound, it seems to me that it goes in cycles of 9 >rings. After each 9, there is a slight pause before it starts again. of course, I don't know if it then tries another number, but I waited through many cycles before I tried to disconnect and that wasn't easy! Once it had me on the line, it seemed that it was loath to let me go. Jewel -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
