Accessibility Standards

Does anyone have any links to a good cheat sheet for making a website accessible to W3C WCAG – AA Compliance standards? I’m using Bobby as a testing tool but want a crib sheet or similar that’s not full of the WAI legalese and is easy for a simple minded developer like myself to [...]

Rupert Murdoch invades Azeroth

This is slowly filtering through the metaverse. In what can only be considered a marketing coup, Blizzard are hitting the mainstream by getting a 14 day free trial of World of Warcraft distributed with this coming Saturday’s copy of The Times.
