Notes

Frozen ground making for a good excuse to walk along these otherwise impassable quagmires of mud in mid-winter

Struggling on clinging to hope in these short, bleak, damp winter days, making the most of our few freedoms to briefly sample the nearby countryside once a day. Things may never be the same as before but better times will come

This afternoon's Covid-19 Christmas holiday activities included reinstating the display of current weather conditions where I am on short-form posts

A huge thanks and incredible shout out to @ohhelloana for playing an essential part in making Homebrew Website Club London a fun and welcoming event in-person and online, for this year, past years, and I hope for 2021! 👏 #IndieWeb https://twitter.com/ohhelloana/status/1339281216202272774

The personalised delights of not ordering things from Amazon but an independent shop online

It's time like this that I wish I'd still access to AltaVista and a disk copy of ClarisWorks

What does web accessibility mean to you?

No doubting Apple puts a lot of effort into building accessible products but sadly for its website there's a few too many easy-fix accessibility WCAG conformance issues for me to consider showcasing apple.com on A11Y Websites #a11y #accessibility

Seeing some great new submissions come in already for A11Y Websites showcase! Look out for additions over the next couple of days I'll be adding to a11ywebsites.com

📣 New site launch!

Showcase of accessible websites

Berlin's Brandenburg Airport finally opens tomorrow. If only I’d a conference like Accessibility Club, Beyond Tellerrand or IndieWebCamp happening to go there for 🤔 ..happier times

📣 Reminder: I'm making a new website, curating a list of accessible websites which meet the latest WCAG 2.1 success criteria to level AA or above. Think yours does? ..then reply or DM me the address for me to test it out!
