I use Google Docs, and even though Google has put some effort into
making it more accessible, and it's definitely improved, I still find it
to be very difficult to use. The most success I've had has been with
Chrome and the ChromeVox extension. To be honest, I mostly use ChromeVox
to quickly review documents in Google. If I have to spend more time
working with a document, I'll use ChromeVox to download the file and
then work with it in Libre Office, although I'm sure you can do the same
with any other office suite.

I'd also like to get more tips using Google Docs, especially with Orca
or NVDA, but I'd also take tips on how to better use Google Docs with
JAWS or ChromeVox. There may be some good information out there already,
but I haven't stumbled across it yet.
