I do dislike those 'mouse over' links. They may be accessible, but they're
not user friendly. The biggest problem is finding where the information has
been refreshed on the page.
Cheers

I always end up feeling that www.facebook.com would be fine but for:
The fact that they won't leave it alone. Imagine the nightmare of being
visually-impaired and living in a house where one of the house rules
stipulated that each time someone leaves the house, someone else has to move
the furniture round. and:
the WebPages are far, far too cluttered. If ever a site would benefit from
skip navigation buttons, this is it.
I don't know if web content is worth mentioning in your presentation, but
you can have the most gloriously designed website where all the pages of
HTML are a breeze to browse (and there's a soundbite for you), and then some
clowns spoil it all by loading up inaccessible, badly designed PDFs, and so
on. This should be about the whole experience.
Best,

Hi
www.tesco.com
is a pain when you try to pay. You have to go through verification and
using supernova anyway the box they ask you to use does not appear on the
screen.
