When I'm in google reader, it's a real game of trial and error to share, like ... a feed post. I can see the buttons, but clicking on them (activating them) isn't easy. This is the case in both versions =full version and aria enhanced alike. So, there's a long way to go for accessibility in google. got some additions, I’m afraid.

Google can use ARIA to HELP screen readers to work with Wave. Even if they do implement ARIA correctly it may not mean anything. Only the newest versions of screen readers know what to do with ARIA (not all get it 100%) and screen readers are so expensive. Also in a perfect world Google would be 100% valid, ARIA is not in W3C validators yet... Well about the Google Wave part… Google can use ARIA to HELP screen readers to work with Wave.
