Hello Phil - 

PM> Here's another website that may be of interest to you. 

Thanks Phil, I will take a look. 

PM> BTW, your complaints in the last little while about the
PM> amateur construction of websites is echoed here. 

Not really. It's just another organization set apart from the
others that will duplicate much of what has already been
learned in the past. Eventually each website will service
exactly one sight impaired person with a gov subsidy of a few
hundred thousand and contributions to make up whatever else
they need for salaries and expense accounts. :-\ 

I tend to be a bit skeptical about some of these organizations.
I've come to find many, not just on the Internet, exist as an
alternative to a real job for those who 'manage' them. After
many 'discoveries' of multi-million dollar charities misuse of
funds and refusal to account for millions in expenditures I've
almost given up the belief that there are any that are
legitimate. 

I will try to review this website with an open mind but I have
to admit it is becoming difficult. 

As I said about 'Bobby' and WC3 they seem to mean well at times
but I also sense that their existence is as much to sustain
those who control it as to accomplish any real results for
those they claim to serve. What they recommend is often
unrealistic and in the case of the WC3 they all admit to using
AMAYA which is not up to date (they admit this too) and is
certainly not what those they claim to 'serve' will be using
any time soon. How they think they can experience the Internet
through incomplete software and then make recommendations for
completely different software is beyond me. 

I've seen little to no reference to LYNX or LINKS at most
websites for the sight-impaired which makes me wonder if any of
the managers have a vision problem at all or any real
experience using computers. :-\
