w3c. Revisando la Accesibilidad con Estilo. [ HERA | Help | Info | Code | Contact ] HERA is a tool to check the accessibility of Web pages accoridng to the specification Web Content Accessibility Guidelines(WCAG 1.0). HERA performs a preliminary set of tests on the page and identifies any automatically detectable errors or checkpoints met, and which checkpoints need further manual verification. Manual revision is always needed to test whether a page is accessible.

To be able to do this testing it is normally necessary to know the Accessibility Guidelines, how users work with assistive technology, and have some practical understanding of web page design. HERA assists in manual revision by highlighting the parts of the page that need checking, providing instructions on how to perform the tests, and offering two views of the page (normal page rendering and the HTML source code) with the most important elements for checking higlighted through colours and icons.

White House 2.0: It's All Fun and Games Until Somebody Becomes President. It starts with the fact that what was a 170-person new media team at the height of the Obama campaign has been condensed down to fewer than a dozen or so government staffers.

But the complicating differences between the campaign trail and the White House don't end there, writes Peter Swire, law professor at Ohio State University and senior fellow at the Center for American Progress. During the Obama-Biden transition, Swire served in the role as the attorney responsible for shepherding both Change.gov and the new WhiteHouse.gov safely through the creation process. In a new CAP briefing memo released yesterday, Swire focuses on three areas that in which shape a context for the White House's web 2.0 efforts different than the one faced by the campaign: scale, clearance, and authorizing outside action. Clearance has to do with something mentioned earlier today on the blog in the context of the State Department's "21st century statecraft efforts. "
