The email, print and views plugins were not so easy to install. I needed to edit several theme pages. I will be writing a post on why the print option (at least) should be integrated into WP for accessibility reasons. Thanks. The email, print and views plugins were not so easy to install.

I have set up an '<a href="http://www.timobrienphotos.com/about-the-site/" rel="nofollow">about the site'</a> page so tht anyone can see how I have set up WordPRess.

It is a bit tricky as you have to modify the theme. It does not help that the installation does not come with instructions. Let me know what you think. I am trying to get WP-Print working now.

That is a good accessibility feature for me, as it conserves eye-work and spatial memory, but it probably isn't considered accessibility in a technical sense. p.s. Just noticed the "Notify me via email" feature for comments here. Is that a WP plugin? Tim, you've made a lot more progress than I have in finding good WP plugins!
