Listen to JediSthlm.com part II

I have now installed another option for listening to my posts or articles. This one in more for people who don’t want to listen to podcasts. This service will work right away by clicking on a link. The article will be read by an synthetic voice. The service will use either your browser or your media player. It depend how your browser is set up. I�m trying this out with a service called Talkr. The service is free (there is also a possibility to pay for it).

I think it is a nice way to have both options. Some people use the browser to surf the web, some use RSS readers and some listen to podcasts. So check it out, the link is below the article, “listen to this post”.

Top ten mistakes

Yesterday Jacob N. delivered his yearly Top Ten Web Design Mistakes of 2005. Most of the time he is having some points in what he is writing about but some do not agree. Always great fun to read about people who disagree with gurus.

Roger and Russ has written a good, easy to follow article about screen readers and how they work with tables. (via)

Here is an basic introduction to WCAG 2.0. I also found this program made by IBM called aDesigner. aDesigner is a disability simulator that helps Web designers ensure that their pages are accessible and usable by the visually impaired. Check out the screenshoots.

Fangs 0.82

Jens — Thu, 28 Apr 2005 08:56:18 +0000

A new version of Fangs seems to be out. I have no changelog as there is no information on the official site. I downloaded it through Mozilla update feature. If you already have it installed, it should be an blue arrow in the top right corner of your Firefox where you can update the extension.

Quite interesting way of finding out how we look at certain pages, here is an example of Google’s search result page. (Thanks D.)

The key location on Google for visibility as determined by the eye activity in the study is a triangle that extends from the top of the results over to the top of the first result, then down to a point on the left side at the bottom of the �above the fold� visible results. This key area was looked at by 100 percent of the participants. In the study, this was referred to as the �Golden Triangle�. Generally, this area includes top sponsored, top organic results and Google�s alternative results, including shopping, news or local suggestions.

What do Screen Readers really say?

Jens — Tue, 08 Feb 2005 14:44:27 +0000

What does really a screen reader say? Is display: none really working as you think? Have a ‘hearing’ over at this test suite. (via)

Note: You need a screen reader to try this out, like JAWS, or FF extension Foxy voice.

The hope is that visitors who are using modern browsers with CSS enabled will not see the Skip navigation link, and that visitors using screen readers will hear it.

Lynx for Windows

Finally I found a port of Lynx for Windows, with an installer that works right out of the box. Super thanks to Csant for making this, this is what is needed for web developers to start using Lynx for trying their webdevelopment out in a text based browser. (via)
