A new web interface for the visually impaired to access Facebook

Abstract

Similar to other social networking sites, Facebook was not designed for being used by the visually impaired. In research concerning about Facebook's interface, there were many problems the visually impaired using the site via a screen reader. The main issues were about web accessibility and usability. These two major issues impact on travelling through the web site by the visually impaired. This study proposes solutions to the problems by including a new interface design, and implementation of the interface applying most used Facebook's features in order to help the visually impaired surf data or information on Facebook via our new and independent middleware interface.
