Accessibility is more important in web services every day. Like other post told, there are many people who have difficulties accessing websites, and we can, step by step, try to reduce the problems to access to internet services.Nowadays, Google is the most popular web search in Internet, because of this, I was looking for how Google work in accessibility applications and I found a new product...
Accessible Web Search for the Visually Impaired is a new product that Google released to enhance the search. First result pages are considered more accessible than result pages in normal Google.
Google Co-op is the technology which created the new tool. It's a users' community where they contribute, with their experience and knowledges, to enhance web search for everyone. Co-op modify result pages about different topics or interests.
In my opinion, work in accessibility pages is so important, we don't know who is the new Einstein or Bill Gates?!?!

Einstein and Bill Gates together in the same sentence?? Wow, probably some people will not agree very much... ;-)
Seriously: In my opinion, if the Web 2.0 is the web of the users... users should work on accessibility problems too!!
But... Is it nowadays easy enough for the average user to take care of accessibility??? :-(
