In a nutshell:
- Screen reader users scan with their ears; they are just as impatient as the rest of us who visually scan pages
- They listen to links; make them meaningful
- They jump directly to [properly coded] headings
- They want to skip to the main content and bypass navigation; if they understand what the skip links mean
- They hear acronyms and abbreviations as words; if they are not marked up correctly.
"Accessibility is not the same as usability. A site is not really accessible if it is not also usable."
