      It would help individuals with disabilities if there was an anchor at the top of the main content area on pages and blog posts.

      <a name="startcontent" id="startcontent" title="Start of Content">Start of Content</a>

      With related CSS to ensure it does not appear on-screen:

      .skiplink

      {display:none; accesskey="1"}

      That css also provides the Alt+1 (for example) access key to quickly jump to the start of content. "1" is not a defined standard, but is widely used on many sites.

      Note: Some sites use "S" but that conflicts with the browsers built-in Alt+S link to the on-screen search box.

      Such a feature is useful for people using screen readers and braillers as it allows them to skip all the navigation, etc., and jump straight to the content they are interested in.
