Philadelphia Standards Organization

In his speech, Making Accessibility Accessible, Jeffrey Zeldman ran through myths and misconceptions on accessibility. He broke the topic down into 4 separate principles.

1. Content must be perceivable to each user.
2. User interface components in the content must be operable by each user.
3. Content and controls must be understandable to each user.
4. Content must be robust enough to work with current and future technologies.

He referenced the newly designed W3C WAI site. This is a great resource for learning WAI requirements. It was a great speech and I will blog on this more later. Eric Meyer is about to come on again.
