Joe is Back!
Joe Clark supposedly left the web accessibility sector a while back to concentrate on the Open & Closed Project, But it seems he’s finding the accessibility bug hard to shake off. More recently, he turned his attention to Vancouver2010.com and CTVolympics. After all, there’s something of history where web accessibility and Olympic web sites are concerned.
And the chief executive of the Vancouver Olympic Organizing Committee did promise that the web sites for the 2010 Winter Olympic Games would be accessible to disabled people.
So Joe decided to take him up on that promise and subjected both sites to a summary review. His findings aren’t exactly inspiring and reflect poorly on what should have been two flagship sites.
London 2012 take note!
Joe describes the UK as having “an expert class of Web developers
“, so people will be watching not only what you do but how you do it.
