No one considers stuff like this...

Everyone is caught up building the next whizzy thing like MySpace but don't sit down to think about how kids with disabilities might be shut out from yet another facet of society. Building ramps etc for buildings or buses that make it easier for wheelchairs to access them may be costly but thinking about blind users of web sites can't be that hard to include at the development stage of a web site - trouble is it doesn't even figure in most companies calculations...
