How about links to sites where actual disabled people bitch/praise web sites for accessibility?
I'd actually be very interested to know how many people are cut off from certain web sites, and why/how.
Also, does anybody think web designers should feel guilty about not making web sites more accessible? From my own experience, accessibilty has rarely if ever come up in any design or concepting discussion i've ever had. (Which means that I myself am guilty of ignoring the issue. Most of the stuff I do is multimedia visual stuff, but that's probably no excuse.)
There are ways even in Flash to make sites accessible to the blind, but these methods are often ignored or deliberately turned off or not tested in QA. (If somebody knows of a counter example, please share.)
Are there a lot of people out there pissed off at web designers because sites are inaccessible (not just because of bad design, but actually inaccesible to disabled people)? I really have no idea but it would be interesting to find out.
