Jakob Nielsen's Alertbox for November 11 is now online at:
http://www.useit.com/alertbox/20011111.html
With current Web design practices, users without disabilities experience
three times higher usability than users who are blind or have low
vision.
Usability guidelines can substantially improve the matter by making
websites and intranets support task performance for users with
disabilities.
