No problems here with the regular Google.com site I still use regularly. Otherwise the accessible page is at http://labs.google.com/accessible/ Martina

In addition, the default sends you to IGoogle which is not a good idea at all in my opinion. 1. Has anyone else experienced this problem? 2. There are links for you to click on which mention the screen reader but they don't seem to be doing much. Is there something i should be aware of, here? 3. Is there a way to avoid I Google entirely? It doesn't work anything like the original Google did. 4. Someone had a special web site address which put you on a Google page that was specifically designed for screen readers. if that URL is still available, could you post it here, please?
