New website accessibility guidelines announced, does your site measure up?
The World Wide Web Consortium has just announed their new standard for making websites and web applications more accessible to the older generation and people with disabilities.
The new guidelines are intended to make websites far more friendly towards things such as screen readers to aid the visually impaired and it’s important that all companies undertake website reviews to ensure these standards are met and that their website is as accessible as possible to everyone visiting it.
For more information on the new guidelines check out http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/technology/7789622.stm
