Blog post: Accessibility #160

Each blog post has 3 separate links to the same blog post, one with the heading, one with the image, and one with the "Read more about..." text link. This triples the number of keypresses required to get past each blog post.

Example text from demo: Additionally, since the image's alt-text is just "Meetup", that becomes the accessible name for the image link. The link in the heading is "Meetup -- All of Design". So each of the three links associated with the blog post has a different name, but they each go to the same place, potentially adding to the confusion of anyone who relies on the accessible names.

Recommend an approach where the heading and the image and the blurb are contained in a single link. If the image doesn't add any information, it should have alt="". The additional "Read more about..." link could be removed altogether in this approach.

@clarkepaul @brynwhyman this is the last accessibility issue for the themes that were covered in the review. I don't think I'll get around to this one this week but can plan to look at it before the next release.
