Usable UK Railways Live Departure Boards!

29 Aug 2003: And while we’re on an accessibility tip (see below), big respect to Matthew Somerville for creating an easy-to-use version of the UK Railways Live Departure Boards. Straight to Favo(u)rites.

A Postcode Finder which works!

29 Aug 2003: Here’s a good find: an easy-to-use version of the the Royal Mail Postcode Finder, the normal version being one of those websites which has long been criticised as an overelaborate nightmare (takes ages to load, requires pointless logging-on, etc etc). The nice version is on the Royal Mail Access Website which it has kindly designed "so that people with disabilities, including visual impairments can access it easily". You have to wonder: what about the rest of us? Thanks NTK UPDATE (2007): I can no longer find a separate version for people with disabilities, but the “normal” version has been made somewhat easier to use.

These ones got people talking

What else is new?

Me Tweet quite a bit
