Re: proposed new text for Ways People Browse in How People with Disabilities Use the Web

Hi,

Since this list is exhaustive, I think we need to reintegrate "some" in there.

Therefore, I'd suggest: "This page introduces some of the various techniques that people with disabilities use to access and interact with the Web, such as browser settings, text-to-speech, voice recognition tools, and many more."
