SalesForce.com CRM Accessibility Query

Is this customer relationship management application accessible to blind screen reader users? A potential job opportunity may hang in the balance.

We could always use lots more signatures! We are also continuing to ask for promos, help with media coverage and assistance with the cover letter.

Disability Rights Advocates Case: NFB v. Target

This should help to serve as an object lesson not to ignore the accessibility needs of people with disabilities!

CastBlaster Accessibility Update

Thanks go out to CastBlaster Mike for working with me to improve the accessibility of this important podcast production and publishing software. Watch out for those blind people blasting accessible casts to an MP3 player near you!
