I often have trouble lneaivg comments on blogger sites with my gmail account because the audio capture often does not work at all, I don't know why this is but it's very frustrating. I also find the mail boxes in gmail a little difficult to navigate with my screen reader but maybe that's just my personal preference. Asking for improved accessibility from large web organisations like google can be an exhausting process, I attempted to point out Myspace's multitude of problems with accessibility (it had been fairly accessible when I joined but became increasingly unusable as they tried to turn it into Facebook) I sent endless e-mails to them detailing the issues but all I got back were messages saying we require more info from you to deal with this problem', after sending as much info as I could with no helpful response I gave up and left the site which was a shame as I liked the music features. It's shameful that disabled net users should have to fight these battles daily in order to use these major sites, it's incredibly draining to find that when we go online into spaces which should be accommodating we're faced with many of the same barriers that exist in the physical world, yet more proof that accessibility doesn't end with ramps and braille signs!
