Website Development

Wouldn’t this development blog be enhanced by some perspective from one of us who is lucky enough to work in the Web development and marketing field despite an obvious lack of acumen or field-relevant education? No? Well fine, but I’ve got an admin password and I plan on using it. Hello, my name is Phil, and I am a non-technical Web user. My official job is inside sales with a pinch of client relations, which means I get a refresher course every day in how our beautiful and brilliant finished projects are used and abused by the world. I hereby vow to share the pain with you, in the hopes of keeping you up-to-date on how the average client uses (or fails to use) their Web sites and applications. It probably won’t improve the blog, but it will help me sleep better.

We’ll start with this one, which is actually a good one. The ongoing and insistent rally by Web developers for Web site accessibility is starting to show results (of course, someone getting sued always helps). It used to just be the government agencies that are required to meet set accessibility standards that would mention them, but an increasingly large number of private companies are including accessibility in their proposal requests. Good job to all who continue this fight (including James). Can someone with a classic ASP site get sued now and make it go away forever? Yes, even non-tech people know that classic ASP sucks.
