[bcab] IBM Social Accessibility Project

Hi folks

Picked this up elsewhere.

The Social Accessibility Project is a service whose goal is to make  
Web pages more accessible to people with disabilities. The service  
gathers users' input and uses the power of the open community while  
not changing any existing content.
This pilot service focuses on users of screen readers. Users  
encountering Web access problems anywhere at any time can immediately  
report problems to the Social Accessibility server. Volunteers (called  
supporters) can be quickly notified and can easily respond by creating  
and publishing the requested accessibility metadata, which will help  
other users who encounter the same problems. Users themselves are also  
allowed to improve accessibility of pages by sharing landmarks on a  
page.
