    Hi. I love the conclusion of this article: “a usable website is “user-friendly” while an accessible website is “all users-friendly”.” It’s too bad that the headline suggests that they are in conflict – not at all the point of this article!

    It’s time we got away from an “us vs. them” attitude towards accessibilty and started thinking about how we can make our web sites and apps (and all ICT) useful and usable for everyone. So many people have pointed out ways in which better accessibility is good for all. Curb cuts, OXO Good Grips, well-structured HTML with semantic markup, clear and accurate labels, and plain language are just a few examples.

    With all the talk of design for good, let’s make sure we are good for all.
