The work going on since Scripting Enabled is really significant and the start of a whole change in accessibility which is that all of us who care and have the skills start working together to create accessible mashups rather than simply just advocate for them. I'm sure the work going on to make Easy YouTube, Flickr, Slideshare and Google Maps will not go un-noticed by the people who run these sites. It's also a big wake up call to show them how easy it is to do these things. Now I've made the switch to Opera I'm really interested in seeing how we can support this from a browser perspective. I'd love to speak to people who have comments, thoughts and ideas around browser innovation and accessibility. (feels funny to be commenting and not posting on this site!)
