Eames Cards
Sunday, October 26th, 2008The theme that I chose was locations and buildings in Kansas. I used the purple to accent the photo, and tried to pick something in the photo that was already ‘attention grabbing’.

Programming Accessibly for the World Wide Web
Wednesday, May 21st, 2008By: Nick Mallare
Introduction
As the Web becomes more and more a part of our everyday lives, we, as programmers, must be aware of the vast differences in our users. We can no longer accept that our site merely looks good in a browser, but we must insist that it readswell. Making the Web accessible to as many people as possible is not a requirement, except for a very select number of sites. However, we must take the initiative. We must be leaders within this immense network of computers. We must make an effort to allow those that are at a disadvantage the opportunity to see.
Overview
This paper originates from Bill Genereux’s Web Development II class. It will cover the basics of accessibility, the different levels of accessibility, and will offer advice on how to make the Web a more accessible place. This paper, although the view of only a few, should be used to further progress the Web towards accessibility. In addition, although it only brings to light the tip of the iceberg, it should challenge us to make both past and future projects as accessible as possible, no matter the size.
