Jeffrey Zeldman brings a wonderful point to mind: Save the Accessibility Institute! Seen here at Jeffrey Zeldman’s website he helps spread the word of a great cause !  http://www.zeldman.com/2008/08/29/save-the-accessibility-institute/

Accessibility is one of the most under-utilized parts of a website.

I hesitate to say feature because it Accessibility should never be added onto a website as a “feature” of a website, more along the lines that a website should be itself and also BE Accessible. Confusing? Would you rather have to “make” milk Duds with chocolate surrounding caramel after you brought the chocolate and caramel home? Add a feature to the caramel? Or would you rather enjoy opening the box of milk duds and just eat them while enjoying the caramel on the inside?

Still confused? Read the page from the link and find other links from there. It would be easier than me trying to think up a cheesy analogy..

Following the leads of a few other major cell phone companies like Nextel, Sprint and others, Cingular is now going to try its hand at Push To Talk (PTT) technology. Cingular will be offering the LG F7200 for use with this service.

As of now, charges for the PTT service will add an additional $9.99 a month for unlimited minutes. If you have a family plan, the charge will be around $19.99 a month.

Although the actual service may be delayed to begin in November, this new service for Cingular will be a landmark in the Untied States. Cingular will mark its name again – this time by being the first GSM carrier with PTT technology in the US.
