8. Beef with Usability
8 months ago
Exploring how to make usability and accessibility a larger part of the everyday design strategy.
+++++
It's too easy when talking in a business context that usability and accessibility is only valuable to a very small portion of an audience.

It forces you to rethink and clean up your code, your content, and look at your page organization on a deeper lever. Which makes your website more clear, more friendly, more responsive, more eloquent... All of which dramatically improve the website for everyone! And as a sweet bonus, the people with motor-skills issues, hearing and vision impairments, etc. can all join the party.
+++++
Too many people are talking as if accessibility and usability are only fringe benefits or low-priority problems... That's a load of crap!

Accessibility focus will be switching from human readable to machine readable, and usability focus from human process to machine logic.
On a side note, keep the videos coming. I find your opinions genuine and relevant, which is harder to find these days.
