Accessibility of Googlepages Web Sites

I did some checking after the question this morning about accessibility and the Google Page Creator tool. I found a free "accessibility checker" called WAVE and I tested some pages. The biggest problem was images that are inserted into the page that don't have alternate text for screen readers. I encourage you to bookmark this web site and test your own pages out in them.

More information on accessibility is available from WebAIM (Web Accessibility in Mind).

What does a screen reader sound like? Listen to this.
