[Nfb-web] Making Flash Accessible?

[Darrell Shandrow]

Hello Everett,

I have started an accessibility resource called the Accessibility 
HelpCenter for developers to make their technology accessible for the blind.

It already includes several links to sites covering how to make Flash 
more accessible.

Please visit http://blindaccessjournal.com/accessibility-helpcenter for 
these links.

Regards,

Darrell
