Share your Experience with Web Accessibility  |  March 10, 2009  

I've started my research for my master's thesis and would really appreciate your help. I'm researching why aren't more Canadian websites accessible for disabled people.

I'm talking to web professionals in Canada about their experiences and thoughts on this issue so that hopefully recommendations can be made to encourage adoption of this issue in a manner that is realistically achievable.

Please share your experiences on this issue here or by contacting me at glen[dot]farrelly at royalroads[dot]ca.

Questions about web accessibility

  • What are the challenges of making a website accessible?
  • What support would you need?
  • Have you heard of W3C's guidelines (WCAG)? Thoughts?
  • Is your site accessible? Why? Why not?
  • What's your experience - pro or con?
Any thoughts, criticisms, suggestions, or experiences you have on this issue, I'd love to know.
