Wednesday, December 17th, 2008 at 6:51 pm- Yahoo Finance just released “the new (accessible) currency converter”:http://finance.yahoo.com/currency-converter done by my colleagues Artur Ortega and Dirk Ginader. It is a perfect example of how accessible does not mean boring. Rich interactions – screen reader compatible
- Firefox 3.05 comes with some new cool accessibility features fixing focusing issues
- Our Dumb World – the Onion’s Atlas as a google maps mashup
- Serge Jespers explaining What not to do in Air Applications – don’t break age-old usability ideas.
- Learning the details about the Internet Explorer security flaw – it is a real issue .
And a nice quote from Carrie Fisher:
Even now, many years later, people are still asking me if I knew Star Wars was going to be that big a hit. Yes, of course I knew. We all knew. The only one who didn’t was the director, George Lucas. We kept it from him because we wanted to see what his face looked like when it changed expression.
