    After looking at several different videos I noticed a common theme, the location of the videos, the United Kingdom (and the accents). From Erin's video I learned that in 2010, in the United Kingdom, a message was give for standards to be made for all accessibility. From here I wondered if the United States had such an idea. After a little research I did find recently documentation that the U.S. is also working on accessibility requirements for users with disabilities. The task force is called the W3C HTML5 Accessibility Task Force. The first draft of the document was presented on February 10, 2012.

Interview about Social Networking - 5 views

  •  
    This video is in a collection of four videos from City University London. This specific video is an interview with an accessibility expert at AbilityNet. She discusses common problems with individuals with disabilities, social networking and how they are excluded from social networking. All four videos are very interesting.
