[olug] Web Accessability

[Adam Haeder]

Hello OLUGgers
My company has recently changed our web development model to focus on the 
new W3C box model. One of the reasons for this is to address the Web 
Accessability Initiative (http://www.w3.org/WAI/).

We've run the "Bobby" tool (http://bobby.watchfire.com/bobby/html/en/index.jsp) 
against our sites to ensure compliance, but I'd like a little more of a 
real-time test.

My question is this: does anyone know of anybody that uses the web who 
would be considered disabled in some way? The WAI mostly sets guidelines 
for some kind of visual impairment, from color-blindedness to legally 
blind. Do you know of anyone that uses some kind of text-to-speech or 
screen reader technology to access web content? If so, I'd like to contact 
this individual(s) and see if they would be willing to do some usability 
testing for us.

TIA
