english2009-07-01 The 5 Layers of Web Accessibility
A Month ago I was very happy to be able to speak at Skills Matter as Part of the monthly YDN Tuesdays. I spoke about my ideas about Web Accessibility and introduced them as "The 5 Layers of Web Accessibility".
Thanks to Skills Matter you can now watch the recording of this talk here. You can also find the according Slides underneath:
You can also read the great writeup by Marc Hibbins who very nicely sums up the contents of my talk.
2009-04-16 Accessible Javascript with and without WAI ARIA at GeekUp Leeds
Yesterday I had the great pleasure to have been invited to speak at a GeekUp special in Leeds.
I must say that these lovely Northeners turned out to be the best audience a speaker can dream of. I was presented with an endless stream of really good and very interesting questions. It's a shame there was no recording because the amazing audience really made this evening and my slides can in no way show the great discussions and fun we had.
2009-04-16 Zu Gast im Mindgarden
Vor kurzem durfte ich zu Gast im Shoreditch Studio des Mindgarden Podcasts sein. Mindgärtner Tobs interviewte mich zum vergangenen BarcampLondon6. Wir plauschten eine halbe Stunde über das Barcamp an sich und darüber wie ich, zusammen mit dem Rest des Teams, das Barcamp organisiert hatte.
Der Mindgarden Podcast ist übrigends generell eine Emfehlung wert. Die tolle Mischung von Web Dev Themen, Humor und Musik ist klasse und daher erlasse ich hiermit Subscribe-Befehl 
2009-03-09 Think Visibility - SEO and more
Last weekend I had the great pleasure to have been invited to a very interesting new conference.
Dom "The Hodge" Hodgson kicked off the first, of hopefully a lot more conferences called, Think Visibility.
The one day conference featured a very wide selection of talks across Usability, Eye Tracking, Social Media, Affiliate, Analytics and many more with a slight focus on SEO. The Talks I've listened to were packed with a lot of insight and informations you wouldn't expect the speakers to give away. I learned a lot and I'm now very tempted to try out some of the SEO Voodoo myself 
Not only was the Think Visibility very interesting but also great fun! The Northerners and their guests are a lovely bunch and as great to talk to during the conferences as in the Pub before and afterwards.
Here are the Slides of my own Talk. A very basic introduction to Web Accessibility for a audience containing hardly any frontend guys which was quite new to me:
