The term “digital divide” was coined to describe the disadvantages in opportunities that people without access to the Internet might experience, relative to those with access — basically, the online equivalent of the “haves” and the “have-nots.”  In the early days of the Internet, content presentation was largely textual. As a result, people with disabilities, such as sight, could rely on screen readers* to have access to the content.  *Screen readers are software applications that convert text to speech, or to Braille displays.

As the world — and technology — has moved onward to more sophisticated content formats, including rich media and heavy use of graphics in displays, Americans with disabilities may find themselves sliding into the digital divide.
