Waaaaaaa! My weather widget broke! I’m pretty sure this is absolutely something I did, and I’ll get it fixed. But still, Waaaaaaaa! I had to break with developer best practices and code in production. Well, I suppose I technically didn’t have to, I could have made a call to support to copy production to development, added my few lines, and then made another call to copy development back to production, (don’t ask, but it has to do with accessibility of the copy tool I need to use to copy back and forth between environments), but yeah, not interested in calling to have someone copy back and forth. Not for a few lines anyway. So, the weather widget is gone for now until I figure out why it broke.

It’s late, and I can’t sleep, so naturally I am playing with websites. We’ll see how the rest of the day goes, but for now, this is actually a really fun way to spend my insomniac time. I hope to help launch this thing later on this morning. Having sat here while it has been built, I think this website is going to end up being a very entertaining read on a regular basis.

Read: “The Mack Open Web” from Bitsplitting.org and offered some thoughts

This one is devoted to all things Mack and iOS that allow you to consume and create content for the open web. I don’t have a Mack, and have not gone through all the iOS apps yet, so you’ll have to test the accessibility of some or all of these apps for yourself. Indieweb developers are very open to accessibility feedback though, and this includes implementing things for the sake of accessibility, so this is sort of the one place where productive conversations about accessibility which don’t involve accessibility folks talking to each other are still possible.

Read: Defining PDF Accessibility by @WebAIM

Defining PDF Accessibility by WebAIM: Web Accessibility In Mind
When people talk about "accessible" PDF files, they are usually referring to "tagged" PDF files. PDF tags provide a hidden, structured representation of the PDF content that is presented to screen readers. They exist for accessibility purposes only and have no visible effect on the PDF file. There is more to an accessible PDF file than tags, but an untagged PDF would not be considered "accessible".

I didn’t have AOL in high school, but my school library had that as well as Prodigy. So did a couple of my friends. I had ICQ in college. I guess that puts me in the “something else” category. It also means I get to escape all the generational boxes. Go me!

Ozzy on the radio, (until I figure out what I’m listening to for today). Final steps for a major site migration which has been an incredible pain in my ass, and the promise of nuking its old home from orbit later this week, which I get to do personally. I have never looked forward to decommissioning a server in the way I do in this case, and it’s almost like a high. I think I may even have a little celebration of the server’s demise. Welcome to Monday everybody, let’s do this!

Blogging in braille with the Orbit 20 Reader because why not? this is just a test post. I need to get bettér at typing in braille. My skills are rusty. I’m getting ready to leave to go over to some friends’ house for a weekend of fun before their dog goes for surgery and they have to be on lockdown in ordér to take care of the little guy. I may post later on unless we’re having too much fun. The weather’s supposed to be gorgeous for the next two days at least so we shouldn’t be interrupted.
