Google's latest AI search algorithm updates are about to decimate your traffic and people are losing their minds. 😆

I've been warning this was coming for 5+ years, offered strategies on how to prepare for and mitigate it, and still nobody listens. 🫢

Accessible colour contrast ratios do not mean that you need to use retina-blazing colour schemes. Just saying.

NEW BLOG: A bit of a longer writeup on my experience at 2024 on Wednesday, hopefully helping to share a flavour of the day with everyone.

Great speaker line up at today. So much to takeaway but I really loved the accessibility talks and how we need to go further than compliance. Accessibility isn’t just WCAG or a checklist. It’s culture and user needs.

A quick reference from Shaun Conner that got a big (empathetic) laugh - mentioning the many 'recovering' developers working in accessibility. So, so true. 💜

Front row seats for Shaun Conner on 'so you're compliant; now what?' at . Asking questions from the outset around are we becoming complacent by focussing solely on compliance checklists rather than the people behind them!

Global Accessibility Awareness Day ( ) is coming up on May 16th! It is a perfect opportunity to celebrate your accessibility progress, get people engaged in the work, and to talk loudly about accessibility.

Here are some ideas from Shaun sconner.net/blog/ideas-for…

1/ Instead of jumping down someone's throat and going for the jugular like the accessibility community LOOOOOVES to do at times (I am guilty of past sins as well) why don't you take the time to educate if you see an article that may have some information that might be wrong.

Would any of my followers like to take this offer up? Dean is paying for a few camp digital tickets and Nexer will match it so you can bring a friend

Only had one taker for this so far. Please pass it on if you know any apprentices, grads or junior UCD bods who’d find it useful.

If you’re from an underrepresented group (by ethnicity, disability, gender identity, etc), and in your early years of a design/tech career, I’ll shout you a ticket to Camp Digital in May. In-person and online options. First come first served!

Nine months sober today! I can’t express how much better my life is without alcohol. Never thought I’d ever say that because I would love a drink. Non alcoholic beers have been key to my success. Guinness in particular!

This is bloody brilliant! Haptic shirts will mean that deaf fans can feel the atmosphere at St James Park this weekend. As a season ticket holder, I'll be singing extra loud!
