We've Come a Long Way

The way we see it.

Geof Collis sitting in front of his computer.When Geof first ventured into web design, Flash was all the rage and He had the eyesight to put together some pretty impressive Multimedia projects. He really enjoyed making the browser come alive with animations, sounds and graphical presentations, but that was then and this is now.

Over the years Geof has gradually lost most of his central vision but that didn't stop the urge to create websites, it only deepened his resolve to keep doing what he loved to do. It also motivated him to graduate to another aspect of web design, that being creating sites that are accessible to the screen reader software that He uses.

Like millions of Internet surfers, Geof relies on Assistive Technology to make his travels throughout the Net as easy as possible. He quickly realized that this was a problem as too many sites were not designed to accommodate Assistive Devices such as his.

It was at this point that he switched gears and dove into W3C Guidelines and began building web pages that were as accessible as is currently possible.

Understanding how to make sites accessible to people with disabilities is an ever changing landscape, but you can rest assured that Geof will keep current with today's best Practice and Standards and use this Knowledge to build websites that are accessible to all.
