Upcoming talks

Magnifying the Web

Screen magnification and browser zoom are commonly used assistive technologies. However, they often get forgotten in the design and build of websites. This can introduce challenges to people with low vision that rely on them for browsing the Web. In this talk, I will share my personal experiences of these assistive technologies and some of the issues I regularly encounter.
