  1. also digging the latest from Tom Waits - released this week! Lots of energy and character in this live album. Sorry to have missed the tour.
  2. some folks waited 12 years for Kate Bush's latest release - I waited 16. Definitely worth the wait - Aerial is brilliant, especially Disc 2.
  3. celebrating Thanksgiving 45 days late (Canadian, that is). We're off to Harrison Hot Springs BC for two days of relaxation and thankfulness.
  4. RT @vick08: Realize, a disadvantage to the built-in - screen reader is that you will not get updates unless you upgrade to the latest OS ...
  5. RT @jcsteh: @stevefaulkner If it relies on any "document" semantics, it probably doesn't qualify for role="application". Serious risk of ...
  6. RT @jcsteh: @stevefaulkner Imo, best way to determine that role="application" should be used is if it behaves like a desktop app in almo ...
  7. trying to use Google Docs with a screen reader, thanks to Google help (http://bit.ly/gm0yE) No luck with JAWS 11. Bad but better with NVDA.
  8. @johunt0311 Solution: Coffee!
  9. "Take a chance. If everything works, it's probably not right." - Anthony Braxton, http://bit.ly/8QT6XY #quotable

  12. can't remember the last time we were NOT under a high wind warning
  13. Musings on ARIA role="application": http://terrillthompson.com/ #accessibility
  14. @ppatel that's what I'm discovering. I just blogged about it: http://terrillthompson.com/
  15. Any screen reader users have positive experiences with web applications that use ARIA role="application"? I'm still seeking good examples.
  16. @BellinghamToday you tweeted "WWU closed" and probably meant this to be past news; I read it as future news - WWU closed again! Confusion.
  17. Outlook 2007, sorting tasks by Due Date, tasks due on 11/17 all show up under heading "Tasks due 11/16". All headings are 1 day off. Why?
  18. timeliness is a problem on Twitter. Don't tweet yesterday's news tomorrow unless you date it. Otherwise folks may think it applies today.
  19. @LindaNie according to the published system requirements for Dragon Naturally Speaking 10, yes it works in Win7. http://tinyurl.com/y87vk54
  20. @BellinghamToday What's your source for WWU being closed? The phone hotline and WWU home page still haven't been updated since yesterday.
