I’ll be honest. Prior to working at Geonetric I knew very little about Web site accessibility or how people with disabilities are able to interact with the Internet.
I remember when Michael Herring, our in-house expert, demonstrated a JAWs reader during a Webinar. It was intriguing to hear how the technology works, and very illustrative of how important the coding is to ensuring the reader works properly. I know how easily frustrated I become when maneuvering a Web site that is less than user-friendly. I can only imagine the level of frustration experienced by those who are dependent on assistive technologies to read newspapers or shop online when they encounter a poorly coded Web site.
