Via Teleread comes this announcement:

Oxford University Press is proud to announce its brand new modern English dictionary and language reference service,
Oxford Dictionaries Online
http://oxforddictionaries.com/?attempted=true

The home page also features a Word of the Day --today's word is
Pecksniffian
http://oxforddictionaries.com/view/entry/m_en_us1276416
--and other word entertainments, such as a newsletter and an examination of
the rise of twitter and tweet
http://oxforddictionaries.com/page/423
and resources for improving your writing.

Individuals can subscribe through either an annual fee of $49.95 or a monthly feeof $7.95, and there appears to be a
free thirty-day trial available
http://oxforddictionaries.com/page/freetrials_us/free-30day-trials
but only for institutions and organizations.
This means that I was foiled in my attempt to try out the accessibility of the site before actually subscribing--if another screen reader user ends up trying this out before me, could you post about your access experience?
