Browsing habits of screen reader users- Standards Schmandards - 1 views

  •  
    Peter Krantz - January 10th, 2005 "A while ago I read the article "Observing Users Who Listen to Web Sites".

Recently I have had the opportunity to study a number of screen reader users and my observations are similar. (...) So, here are some suggestions you can use to improve the browsing experience for visually impaired users: Use headings god dammit!"
