making YouTube and Flickr accessible

June 14^th 2008 by prisca

Prompted by Antonia Hyde’s (United Response) presentation at this year’s Accessibility2.0 conference in London Chrsitian Heilmann (icant.co.uk) started working on making the YouTube player more accessible by setting up the ‘EasyYouTube’ player. He also went on to create an ‘EasyFlickr’ application which strips the Flickr viewer down to the minimum elements.
