		<description><![CDATA[Twitter unveiled a new redesign today. Very little of it is really noticeably different, until you look at the underlying code. Which, last I recall, used to be pretty good–they even used the fancy-pants XHTML 1.0 Strict doctype (though still using tables for layout, which the spec says it shouldn&#8217;t do).
But one thing about the [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s funny how sometimes things get wrapped up in a little bow.
Last April, I was in San Francisco, giving my &#8220;Accessibility 2.0&#8243; talk at the first O&#8217;Reilly Web 2.0 Expo. Out of that conference came the seed for the project that I&#8217;ve been working on, and now, I&#8217;m happy to unveil it. This Wednesday, I&#8217;m [...]]]></description>

		<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.

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:

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>
