The trouble with their accessible search is if the information you're looking for is only on a crummy site that is sort of accessible, they won't show it to you in the first few screens and you may get discouraged and give up before you get there.  I was looking for some bit of pop culture, I forget what and got it on the first screen of results with a regular google search but not in the first three with the accessible google.  I don't know enough to tell them how to fix that, but maybe some of you do.  Kathie

Google just rolled out a new experimental version of an accessible search interface: http://labs.google.com/accessible/.

Your feedback to Google may be important.
