Pitzer Agreemant to Make Web Sites Accessible to the Bind and Visually Impaired

Attorney General Eliot Spitzer today announced settlements with two major organizations that will make the web sites far more accessible to blind and visually impaired users.

In addition to the steps outline, Ramada.com and Priceline.com will pay the State of New York $40,000 and $37,500, respectively, as costs of the investigation. The Attorney General emphasized that once the companies were notified of the accessibility issues by his office, they worked cooperatively and creatively with his Internet Bureau to correct the issues.
