Looking ahead to better accessibility on the web

Mike:

I’ve been building web applications for the government for more than 10 years, so I’m more than a little familiar with Section 508 and what it means to develop a web site the complies with it. But recently, my team and I have gained a much deeper understanding of accessibility by participating in an experiential learning session led by Catharine McNally. I’ve gained new levels of realization about what really makes content on the web accessible and usable for all individuals.

Big Drupal: Ten Trends for the Enterprise

Jeff:

As the Drupal community and lots of newcomers all descend on San Francisco this week, I am making just one (maybe not so bold) prediction: This conference is the tipping point.

It is likely a combination of many things: maturity of the product itself, size of the installed base, growth in community popularity and participation, lack of affordable alternatives for comparable web 2.0 functionality, etc. I actually prefer to view it more as the maturity of Drupal as a platform through which the Drupal technology community is pushing Drupal forward - potentially straight into enterprise software territory. Here is my "top ten style" list of the technology trends I see fueling this growth.

A different take on 2.0

Tiffany:

Earlier today, I posted an article form Gartner about how companies could use Web 2.0 to better their business. This afternoon, I came across a post on Click Z cautioning corporate sites against trying to create communities when it doesn’t make sense. I think there’s a middle ground. The key is simply knowing your audience and engaging them in the right way.
