For most people reading this page, I’m sure that losing your vision is a dreadful idea. Unfortunately, partial blindness and complete vision loss are facts of life for many people around the world, even those who use the Internet regularly. In fact, someone with visual impairments could be reading this article right now. If you or a friend or family member are visually impaired, or you just want a screen reader, stick with me, and I’ll recommend the best screen-reading applications.While you will have all that you need to be reading blind you have finished reading this article, you definitely shouldn’t be grabbing just any old screen reader off the Internet either.Best Microsoft Windows Screen Reader: JAWSWhat would this list be without Freedom Scientific’s JAWS? It advertises itself as (and is) the most popular screen reader on the market and for good reason. The company that makes it is also prominent for making other products oriented toward the disabled, including magnifiers, large-print keyboards and even digital braille-centered devices. If you already use Windows and Freedom Scientific’s other products, buying JAWS is a no-brainer. Though, therein lies its downside: unlike some other programs on this list, JAWS is not free, though it has a nice trial for anyone who wants to take it for a test run.Best Mac OS X Screen Reader: Apple VoiceOverAlso available on iOS, VoiceOver is Apple’s free screen-reading solution made for Mac OS X, and it’s probably one of the best on this list. In addition to having very deep, OS-level integration, VoiceOver also has features like braille support and functions tailored specifically to Mac hardware like a “Rotor” function mapped to the touchpad and gestures. If you’re using a Mac or iPhone, there’s no reason not to grab Voiceover.Best Chrome (OS) Screen Reader: Google ChromeVoxTo the surprise of absolutely no one, the best screen-reading solution for Chrome and Chrome OS is the one developed by Google. ChromeVox is a Chrome (OS)-centered solution intended to make Chrome and Chrome OS more usable for the visually-impaired. If you’re using Windows or another desktop OS, you may want to

Windows 8 comes with Internet Explore 10 as the default web browser and a Bing tile prominently displayed on the Start screen. Google Wants to change that.With Windows 8 officially hitting the shelves this past Friday, Microsoft will regain some significant ground on the ongoing search/browser battle. And they are doing it through a tried and true method: by default. When Windows 8 users first install the latest Microsoft operating system, the environment will be pre-loaded with Internet Explorer 10 and Bing tiles prominently ensconced on the Start screen. The Bing tile on the Start screen is particularly inviting, providing a virtual window to Bing’s signature breathtaking picture of the day. And Internet Explorer, of course, is the default browser for all web pages found through the search.Google’s answer to that usage share grab? On the same day that Windows 8 was released to the public, the search giant posted an invitation on the official Google Blog for all Windows 8 users to “Get Your Google Back.” The process for doing so is easy as pie, thanks to a simple guided tutorial found at GetYourGoogleBack.com, but Google’s accompanying video is still worth a watch, even if only for the groovy tunes.Relinquishing a fresh Windows 8 machine from the grip of Internet Explorer and Bing takes two steps:Step 1 of the Get Your Google Back site is to visit the Windows Store to grab the official Google Search app. The Google Search app for Windows 8 adapts to the touch-friendly “Metro” environment, with features built for swiping, such as the image search and image preview. The Start screen tile for the Google Search app strives be equally as eye-catching as Bing’s by displaying the Google doodle of the day (doodles, in case you haven’t been to the Google homepage in the past few years, are playful riffs on the Google logo, which are typically commemorative, tongue-in-cheek or both).Step 2 is to download Google Chrome and make it the default web browser in Windows 8. Similar to the Google Search app, Google Chrome also has some improvements designed for Windows 8, including larger buttons and “the ability to keep Chrome open next to your other favorite apps.” (This second benefit sounds like the built-in docking feature for Windows 8, but it’s possible that Google has further optimized Chrome for side-by-side multitasking.) After completing the above two steps, the Windows Start screen will prominently feature a Google logo in the upper-left and a Chrome tile just beneath it. And somewhere, in some distant data center, an analytics bot starts ticking up points for Team Google.Google/Chome vs. Bing/Internet Explorer: A Strategic Browser BattleThe Get Your Google Back campaign comes off as lighthearted and unassuming, which is fitting for the company that still bears “Don’t be evil” as its unofficial motto. But don’t be mistaken: this is serious business. Google is making a calculated foray into Windows 8 territory to bird-dog longtime users getting their first taste of Microsoft’s new and improved search and web

Taking screenshots on a phone or tablet is easier than on a PC. The latest Chromebooks and other computers have built-in tools for that purpose, but you may need Microsoft Paint or another image editing app to alter the screenshots. Web browsers also have such tools, although some can get technical. On Chrome, enter Developer tools to record or screen grab content. If you want a faster method, use Microsoft Edge's Web capture tool. Web capture allows you to grab your screen in full or choose an area. You also have the option to copy texts, images, or tables and paste them into Word editors or other applications. This way, you don't have to retype or take multiple screenshots you don't need. If you want to see Web capture in action, here's how. Related How to annotate a web page Save notes to any web page How does Microsoft Edge Web capture work? Web capture helps you screen grab online content and edit it within the Microsoft Edge browser. You don't need to open the images with editing software like you do on some computers. There are three ways to use the feature, as shown below: Capture full page automatically takes a screenshot of a web page from top to bottom. Capture area takes a screenshot of only a section of a web page. Web Select highlights and copies text, images, or tables from a web page and pastes them into Microsoft applications or third-party software. After taking a screenshot,
