A Different Web Accessibility Primer

November 24, 2004

I’m pleased to announce that I’ve just had my first article published over at DMXZone.com, entitled “A Different Web Accessibility Primer”. Other members of the authoring team at DMXZone include web professionals such as Molly Holzschlag, Rachel Andrew and Rudy Limeback (among others).

I’ve posted a sample of the web accessibility primer over at WATS.ca so that you can get an idea what the article is about. Just so you are aware: DMXZone.com is a subscription based site – articles are very reasonably priced, and they do have bulk and yearly subscriptions available.

Many thanks to Ian Blackham of DMXZone for his editing suggestions and for helping to co-ordinate the publication and production of this article.

Good to see a more practical view of accessibility in an article, rather than focussing on the technicalities. Also, a good target – getting more people into using Dreamweaver in a more useful way.

I’m afraid I’ve only read the into on WATS though. Maybe I’ll get around to getting a DMXZone subscription sometime.

I’d agree with the: “We all Need to get out More” heading; only yesterday I was saying as much to the “New Face of Accessibility” himself it’s the interaction that really helps. I was talking to a certain group of disabled users last morning and it was really enlightening getting someone who has SPLd, hearing their responses to a set of indirect questions.

Congratulations.
Those are some big names, and for you to be among them must definitely be a blessing.
Way to go.
