More specifically, Web accessibility means that people with disabilities can perceive, understand, navigate, and interact with the Web, and that they can contribute to the Web. Web accessibility also benefits others, including older people with changing abilities due to aging [1].</span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family: Calibri; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;" lang="EN-US"><span style="white-space: pre;"> </span>Nowadays social networks become more and more important in our ordinary life, especially life of youngsters.

Port Coppermine Galery System to support Wordpress themes and functionality

Wordpress is a mighty and easy to use blogging software but in version 2.02 it has not got a good galery system. Therefore I want to use a coppermine galery which is very easy to use and has a lot of nice functionalities like batch uploading. I want to add pictures in a post directly from the coppermine galery and furthermore I want to have an overview page for all galeries which supports the wordpress theme.
