Thumbs up Yahoo and Accessibility

YUI Theater’s newest video is a 27 minute Introduction to Screen Readers by Victor Tsaran, an engineer here at Yahoo! and our Program Manager for Accessibility. He begins by showing us the core functionality of screen readers and how they interact with the desktop. In the second part he demonstrates how he uses them to explore and understand web sites, how sites are “linearized”, and how using semantic markup to build sites supports accessible navigation and usability.

Don't miss the part two too: YUI Theater — Doug Geoffray: “From the Mouth of a Screenreader”

If you watch the video, you will begin thinking twice about if you should care about accessibility or not.

I honestly enjoyed them!
