Project Gutenberghttp://www.gutenberg.org/Project Gutenberg is the oldest producer of free electronic
books (eBooks or etexts) on the Internet. Our collection of more than
15,000 eBooks was produced by hundreds of volunteers. Most of the
Project Gutenberg eBooks are older literary works that are in the
public domain in the United States. All may be freely downloaded and
read, and redistributed for non-commercial use (for complete details,
see the
license page).
Project Gutenberg is the first and largest single collection of free
electronic books, or eBooks. Michael Hart, founder of Project
Gutenberg, invented eBooks in 1971 and continues to inspire the
creation of eBooks and related technologies today. This has been added

Shirky: Cameraphones are today's
Gutenberg press
05/11/2004 11:59 AMClay Shirky has written an excellent entry on the appearance of
unmediated photos from the Iraqi front on a Friendster-like service
called YAFRO. He likens this -- and other instances of undmediated
communication -- to the Protestant Reformation.
The spread of images from Iraq, both relatively plain ones like most
of what's on the YAFRO blogs to the horrifying images of torture and
abuse from the Abu Ghraib prison are all part of the removal of
bottlenecks that will change the political structure in ways we can't
predict.
And it isn't just military affairs, its politics and business and
everything else, from attempts to coordinate evidence of Apple's
manufacturing errors (previously handled case-by-case, but now
becoming a kind of grass-rooots class action protest, to Apple's
horror) to the distributed amicus brief on the SCO case conducted by
the Linux community to the recent right of Americans to get their
medical records on request and within 30 days to the publication of
spoilers for popular TV shows. (Read this last link now — its
from the Times and goes away in 5 days, and although on the surface
its about TV, its really a musing on life in a fully disclosed
culture.)

Alt and beyond: Making web graphics
accessible.
10/25/2002 03:31 PMMany developers still view graphics and accessibility as being on
opposing ends of the web development scale. The truth is that
including graphics in your documents does not mean your page has to be
any less accessible. In fact graphics can be used to enhance the
accessibility of a page. There are, however, a few key techniques that
you can employ to ensure that you don't have to construct alternative
"Text-Only" documents.

Building accessible tables.
09/30/2002 01:52 PMCSS and XHTML have given tables a pretty rough ride in recent times.
Of course, this is the fault of just about all web developers who have
at some point in their career used them for laying out page elements.
This article is not about using tables for layout. It is about how to
use tables to display information in an accessible manner. Use XHTML
and CSS all you want for layout, but if you have information
relationships to display, use tables and use them well.

01/22/2004 02:12 AMWhen two or more computer users are sharing a networked peripheral
like a printer, there can be a turf war of sorts, since peripherals
that connect using U.S.B. cables must be situated no more than about
five yards from at least one of the computers on the network.
Building Accessible HTML Tables for the
Disabled
Building Accessible HTML Tables for the
Disabled
10/01/2002 12:25 PMBlind and other severely vision impaired users rely on assistive
technologies to render web content. All text can be fed through a
screen reader or refreshable braille display to be presented to the
user. However, despite containing text, the table above could make a
real mess of things without a few extra behind the scenes
accessibility enhancements. To an assistive browser our table could
well look like this:
Time Planned Task Preferred Task What I actually did
10 - 12 Catch up on replying to my emails. Have a lie in. Surfed
aimlessly.
12-1 Have Lunch. Have Lunch. Had Breakfast.
1-5 Finish that project. Go to video store. Caught up on my emails.
Ok, we can still kind of make a little sense of it. That is because we
can see it. A blind user can't easily scan back up and check what the
third piece of information relates to. Was it what I actually did, or
what I would have preferred to do? This is why we need to create
relationships within the code of our table. Thankfully, from HTML4.0 a
bucketful of accessibility enhancements were introduced to enable the
conscientious developer to do this. -- Tim Roberts
