Google is actively reaching out to Internet users with disabilities and is
working to make all of their products more accessible to this
population.  In March, Google came to the giant international conference on
People with Disabilities and Technology produced by CSUN (California State
University Northridge).  Google had a booth and also gave a couple
presentations.

Next week, EASI's Podcast on conference presentations will provide the
audio of a CSUN Google presentation and on the Podcast site will have a
link to documents used in that presentation.  We are excited to bring this
to our EASI friends.

This link will take you to a two-minute excerpt from the Google presentation:

There are 3 different Podcast feeds there.  For this presentation select
the conference Podcast feed which will take you to the page where you can
subscribe.  It will be posted next Thursday or Friday.

EASI also is planning to host a live Webinar with Google folk in the next
month or two.  Watch for an announcement at:

EASI, (Equal Access to Software and Information), is committed to using
Podcasts, Webinars, online courses and interactive Internet tools to help
institutions make their computer and information technology resources more
accessible to users with disabilities.
