Axxlog

Residents of Sydney, Australia may be pleased or perhaps even scandalized to learn that I’m coming to visit starting September 28 through the first week of October. I’m speaking at a conference on Web standards that will, curiously enough, be captioned (or at least transcribed via CART).

Anyone want to have double espresso?

The better part of a year in the making, and created in conjunction with the TILE project, I’ve written 21 chapters on the topic of best practices in online captioning.

Among many other things, you’ll find:

• A list of every known method of using embed and/or object with valid code
• Illustrated examples
• And a host of guidelines on how to handle exceptional cases (how do you caption a videoclip that’s also audio-described?)

These files have been ready for a while, but there was some question as to their ultimate home. I have decided to cut bait rather than fish and am posting them myself.
