The web is about information accessibility
-
Not Synced
It's really a basic human freedom that we
-
Not Synced
are just really beginning to talk about in
-
Not Synced
the last decade. <ahm> It's important
-
Not Synced
therefore that everybody have this freedom
-
Not Synced
any freedom that's only allocated to a few
-
Not Synced
is not really a freedom.
-
Not Synced
The web is about information and <er> it's
-
Not Synced
important that people can access the
-
Not Synced
information that they need in order to
-
Not Synced
complete a workflow or get their job done
-
Not Synced
finish a task.
-
Not Synced
I think the web should be accessible to
-
Not Synced
everyone all the time. I grew up with it
-
Not Synced
being easily accessible to me.<Erm> It's how
-
Not Synced
I learnt information easily. <Erm>I can't
-
Not Synced
imagine someone not being able to just
-
Not Synced
google something instantly, and getting
-
Not Synced
what they need.
-
Not Synced
I think websites should be accessible<ah>
-
Not Synced
because...the web is founded kinda on this
-
Not Synced
idea of sharing information and if you
-
Not Synced
can't share information or if some people
-
Not Synced
can't see it , then it's not truly being shared.

We all have different abilities and
-
Not Synced
disabilities, and if we're all going to be
-
Not Synced
able to get the same content and interpret
-
Not Synced
it in a somewhat similar fashion, it has
-
Not Synced
to be given to us in that way and
-
Not Synced
accessible so that we can actually reach
-
Not Synced
it
-
Not Synced
Accessibility is important for a number of
-
Not Synced
reasons. <ah> For one, there are laws that
-
Not Synced
apply.<ah>Another is, it can relate to our
-
Not Synced
reputation. And a third is that<ah>by paying
-
Not Synced
attention to it, we create a more
-
Not Synced
inclusive educational environment.
-
Not Synced
I think we are really good as developers
-
Not Synced
at being...focusing on the 80% case.
-
Not Synced
Focusing on how do we make every 4 out of
-
Not Synced
every 5 of our users happy. How do we
-
Not Synced
build things for those group of people,
-
Not Synced
because the last 20% is always hard. But I
-
Not Synced
say that the web is for 100%. It's for
-
Not Synced
everybody, which is what Tim Burners-Lee
-
Not Synced
said.
-
Not Synced
I'm definitely am very moved by this
-
Not Synced
notion of inclusiveness. I mean I think
-
Not Synced
that, for me it's a part of who I...
-
Not Synced
this is important to me. But <erm> there's
-
Not Synced
also just the sort of, <erm> the notion of
-
Not Synced
of having everybody's contributions to the
-
Not Synced
sort of...the knowledge.
-
Not Synced
Big challenge is, to escape your own
-
Not Synced
viewpoint. And to not make the assumption
-
Not Synced
that everyone sees the web the way you see
-
Not Synced
it
