Test Average: 29%
Updated 27 August 2009

Description

This is a service allowing users to remain in contact around the world with e-mail, ICQ, and a social network setting. It is possible to upload photo, videos and documents, store files and personalise your own desktop that acts in a similar fashion to a Mac desktop. Everything loads in a Flash format.

Accessibility Testing Results

The entire site is Flash based so does not work in a text browser and the only changes that can be made are those offered by the service. Although the site scores well for not having frames or tables this is not surprising it does distort the final scores. The site is easy to use if you can access the Flash and uses icons rather than text in most places.
