"That would be appreciated!   If they wish help with the details, I'm happy to do so. Since I program things like this so often, I often see the code in my dreams...   Accessibility isn't really difficult, just often…"

"From what I've seen, they have a pretty bloated agenda, but it might be on there somewhere :) The problem is that, even though you can access Google Hangouts in IE, Firefox, and Chrome, the Hangouts feature isn't designed to be accessible…"

"Sounds great! I look forward to seeing the page.   The Google hangout sounds good too, but the snag for me is that the Google hangouts feature is inaccessible for the blind, which effects me unfortunately. I've been bugging them about it,…"

"Is there a page that describes what the Digital Champions group and network are? I apologize if this is obvious, I've been swamped lately and am a bit behind the times. I'd be happy to help though."

"Everything you have all said makes sense, but there is one concept that hasn't really appeared anywhere that I've seen, so I just wished to mention it here. For example, on the LinkedIn discussion, the basic questions that were asked (why…"

Yes
Profile information
I wish to improve people’s lives by incorporating accessibility within future web technologies, which will positively impact hundreds of millions who depend on such technologies for their personal success, wellbeing, and livelihood.

Being fully blind, this is very important to me, and is a goal I am committed to pursuing. Specifically, I have been studying web development and Assistive Technology interaction for the last ten years, and have devised a methodology based on mathematics and spatial positioning ratios for building fully accessible user interfaces for dynamic applications without sight.

Using this methodology, I built the AccDC API at WhatSock.com to provide a development resource for international businesses, organizations, and universities wishing to pioneer the field of Accessible Innovation. Thus allowing developers to incorporate accessibility within future web technologies, to propagate knowledge, educate engineers, and to provide a platform from which future accessible technologies can grow and evolve.

This is what I hope to achieve at any rate.

The Power of Vulnerability

Influential author and speaker Dr Brené Brown tackles the myth that vulnerability is a weakness. Instead, she argues, it is the clearest path to courage and meaningful connection, and has the power to transform the way we engage and educate.

Leading Change

With many of us facing an ever greater pace of change in our personal and working lives, leadership adviser and educator Richard Gerver reveals how to adapt and thrive - not to fear change but to see it as an opportunity for creative reinvention

From the digital divide to inclusive innovation: the case of digital money

To mark the launch of a new RSA pamphlet, we bring together an expert panel to discuss the growing use of digital money worldwide, highlight its potential and consider the issues that will facilitate or hamper its reach.
