Again with Ajax Accessibility – my talk at AbilityNet in London

Thursday, July 17th, 2008 at 2:35 am

Today I went again to help out AbilityNet with one of their workshops talking to a small group of developers and project managers about the problems with Ajax and Accessibility and general Web2.0 concerns. Instead of giving a lot of technical details I tried to point the audience to good resources and get them to find out more for themselves. I hope I succeeded.

For the first time I also successfully recorded the talk in mp3 format using the mac powerbook. GarageBand is great for recording, but the editing features suck, good old Audacity came to the rescue. Bear in mind I had 4 hours sleep and a day of presentations behind me when I did this one, and it is more fun to see me explain some of the pauses with gestures :)
