QVC Asked to Retain Accessibility in Web Site Update

By Darrell Shandrow

Randy from Accessible Devices

has informed us that the QVC home shopping network is beta testing a 
significantly updated web site. While the current site is accessible to blind 
shoppers, the beta site is apparently not so great.

We have just submited a short note to the QVC webmasters asking that they keep 
in mind the accessibility needs of their blind customers. A response has been 
explicitly requested, so please stay tuned for any updates. In the meantime, 
all blind and visually impaired QVC shoppers are asked to immediately complete 
this contact form asking QVC to continue reasonably accomodating and retaining 
their blind and visually impaired customers by ensuring the ongoing 
accessibility of the web site.

One quick note from an accessible evangelist is only the very beginning, but it 
is not even close to sufficient as an ending step. If you are blind or visually 
impaired, and you shop with QVC, please fill out the form requesting web site 
accessibility right now.
