This week, the Blindnamic Duo are getting down to business and talking accessibility on the internet!
They say a picture is worth a thousand words, but why does it sometimes need more than 100 characters? Marc gets fired up about captchas, Jan relates the internet to architecture and the two delve into the staggering statistic that 70% of websites are inaccessible to the blind.
All of this, plus find out what it feels like when robots cry. (Here’s a hint: They see sparks!)
