- The Archimedes Project http://archimedes.stanford.edu/ at Stanford University aims to promote the general use of accessible computer tools, raising accessibility for all users. The project does not design
tools specifically for those with disabilities. Instead, the group tries to develop accessible
tools that will be used by the general population. Whereas many accessibility projects focus
on users with disabilities, the goal of the Archimedes Project is to develop accessible tools
that are so superior to other products that even those without disabilities will want to have
them. (Wired News, 22 July 02) For the complete article see:
