		<description><![CDATA[On the eve of the first Olympics in which live and on-demand content will be available on the web in most countries, I have to wonder how long it will be until the IOC recognizes that they should no longer bother to embargo content to match the prime-time schedules of viewers around the world.
This time, [...]]]></description>

I have a serious complaint with the way eBay sends automated messages. I was forwarded a message sent from eBay to the seller, which reads:

		<description><![CDATA[I have a sister who&#8217;s 18. She&#8217;s studying nursing at Northern Arizona University, and I&#8217;m really proud of her. Occasionally, though, she sends me chain letters, and I just got one from her today. It consists of couplets contrasting our relative comfort against the struggle of our soldiers in the Middle East:

		<description><![CDATA[Alt text matters to users. When an image is not visible, due either to a user&#8217;s own visual or cognitive disability, or their use of a low-bandwidth or intermittent connection to the web, @alt is there to provide the necessary, missing semantics. This is a good thing. So good, in fact, that @alt is a [...]]]></description>

Your thirties.
I remember one day, when I was 30. I threw the sheets off the bed, and shot my legs out to launch myself from the bed. I took two steps forward, saw a blinding light&#8230; and found myself lying [...]]]></description>

I won&#8217;t be at SXSW this year. Sorry. I really wish I could, especially after seeing some of the accessibility sessions. If you&#8217;re going, do not miss Derek Featherstone&#8217;s Star Wars session, or Gez Lemon&#8217;s ARIA primer.
I will be at the CSUN conference, that being [...]]]></description>

I read about the IE 8 beta (and I&#8217;ll test it for myself as soon as I prep a fresh virtual machine&#8230;). Key features include support for the WAI-ARIA spec, and Acid2 compliance. Chris Wilson apparently also said during his talk [...]]]></description>

I spoke at Fundamentos Web 2007 in Gijón on Wednesday. The topic was designing new technology to build on the accessibility we already have, rather than stripping it away. The audience was fantastic, and the people [...]]]></description>
