I've added a new blog entry showing what ARIA (Accessible Rich Internet Applications) are, and how you can create them easily with EWB.  

I've made the code open source, feel free to use it in your own applications.

Many of us are under increasing pressure to make accessible applications due to legislation and changing public understanding of norms, and this library file helps significantly toward doing that.

There is a decent web video showing some uses for ARIA at

Today I converted a pretty hefty application with about 100 inputs (TEdits, TMultiLineEdits, etc.) in a matter of minutes using the Dataset/Datacolumn to ARIA feature mentioned in my blog post.   You can use the automatic tool to convert most elements first, then simply override the ones with confusing data column names manually.
