Checkpoints for usability and accessibility - 12/15/2005 10:35:37   
I found this today, interesting reading on web accessibiliy, usability, credibility, and SEO. Though a large part of it concerns accessbilbity which obviously helps people with disabilities to use websites more easily, there's also a lot of information on general usability issues with reasoning and links to sources of further information - useful for newbies and experienced webbies alike. For two weeks (I think Santa's come a little early :)) it's free to download - normally £170 - not quite sure how they justify the £170, but for now it's free anyway. :)

Worth a read.
