Bits & Pieces

Description

I don’t claim to be an expert on either accessibility or usability, but I do realise their importance.

This talk was presented to a group of students relatively new to the field of web design, as part of my Software Engineering full year project.

Errata

Slide 24. The My Mac web page used as an example for images with missing text–alternatives is incorrect. The page does in fact have alt text for its images. I missed that when I was creating my slides, because for some unknown reason, Safari chooses not to show alt text when you disable images.
