I was watching the 麻豆官网首页入口 technology show the other day, as I sometimes do, being something of a News 24 addict. In their Webscape section, they featured a site called . This website allows you to upload video and edit it. You can then make the video public or private - public videos can be downloaded and re-edited or re-mixed by other people. Admittedly, you might not fancy remixing someone's holiday video, but if you are eighteen and in a band having someone mash up your promo video sounds interesting. At least, I think it would have been to me when I was eighteen and in a band.

Picking up from the YouTube thread from the other day, I did drop them a line to see if they provided or were planning to provide (as the site is still in its beta stage) close captioning for users. No news yet, but if they get back to me I'll let you know.

Back to my point... I don't catch Click every week but they do promote some sexy, exciting websites that are, well, frankly, pretty inaccessible. Very indicative of the two-speed internet that's emerging. OK, its not like watching Graham Norton endorsing the latest line of ecstacy pills on his chat show or anything. But all the same, the Disability Discrimination Act covers websites and it would be nice to have a nod towards that sometimes.

Stop press: they did a big feature on disability with some slightly more accessible links yesterday. And just when they were settling into a comfortable pattern too!

Fair play to Jumpstart, they emailed me back about my closed captioning enquiry. They did say that Jumpstart doesn't currently offer closed captioning, but that the technical team would get to know about my request, and it might be something they will look into as part of future development.

i would like to congratulate and thank 'Click' for covering accessibility for those with motor disabilites. This is often an issue that is overlooked. In my experience, accessibility is often a subject that is only thought of in terms of scree readers and cationing/subtitlind or AD.
