- "Documentaire Web sur l'accessibilité du Web : bien, mais devrait mieux faire"
En suivant quelques personnes sur des plateformes de microblog comme Twitter ou Identi.ca, j'ai découvert le site Point de vue, un autre regard sur l'accessibilité Web. Le site, tout en se montrant recommandable dans son initiative et son contenu, me laisse sur ma faim du point de vue des standards du Web et de l'accessibilité […]
Victor Brito, BritoWeb (2010-08-24) - "Three rules for creating accessible forms"
As part of my role at Nomensa I've spent a significant amount of time evaluating the accessibility conformance on a range of websites. When auditing these websites I have been consistently surprised at the way in which web forms have been implemented. Forms can be a source of confusion for everyone, not least for people with cognitive disabilities and visual impairments […]
Dan Stringer, Humanising Technology (2010-08-23) - "Audiodescription : le cinéma accessible aux aveugles et malvoyants"
Ci-dessous un court reportage diffusé il y a quelques mois sur BFM TV à propos de l'audiodescription. On me demande souvent ce qu'est l'audiodescription, bien que ce reportage ne le précise pas en détail il donnera quelques billes […]

Recently I came across a site that has a less than accessible horizontal main navigation bar with drop-down menus containing links to the different pages in each section. This got me thinking once again about the use of drop-downs from an accessibility perspective […]
Roger Hudson, DingoAccess (2010-08-17) - "New InDesign Accessibility Video"
Accessibility in PDF documents exported from InDesign is an are that many InDesign users are increasingly interested in. In response, we've worked with the Adobe Government team and Michael Murphy, Adobe Certified Expert, to offer a video that demonstrates InDesign accessibility best practices in action […]
Andrew Kirkpatrick, Adobe Accessibility (2010-08-13) - "Web accessibility for cognitive disabilities and learning difficulties"
Web accessibility for people with cognitive disabilities and learning difficulties is one of the most overlooked subtopics of general web accessibility, despite it affecting the largest numbers. A large part of it is that there are so many conditions to understand in this area (far more than say visual or hearing impairments) and a lack of educational information available for learning about it […]
