Title: Accessibility for Aging Users

Abstract: I will briefly describe my interest in the topic of computing accessibility for aging computer users, and the broad research area this fits into. Then I will talk in detail about a recent study on how blind people use screenreaders to access the web. This will include guidelines on how to make web pages accessible and usable for sighted and non-sighted users.
