The Bobby site that tests the usability/accessibility of Web sites to
users with disabilities has been mentioned here several times, most
recently by Tom Murrell:
Can anybody give some examples of well-known sites that are
Bobby-compliant?
I put some sites I designed through Bobby's gauntlet, and got chewed up
pretty badly, which is making me reevaluate some of my design principles.
But out of curiosity I fed some other "mainstream" sites to Bobby; they
fared even worse.
I'd just like to get a feel for the kind of sites that can pass this
rigorous test. I think it's a great standard to aim for.
Thanks in advance,
Keith Cronin
