Description:
The WAI-ARIA (Web Accessibility Initiative – Accessible Rich Internet Applications) specification is almost complete, yet now is the time to start integrating the ARIA features into your websites, web applications, and widgets. Joe’s track will introduce some basic, high-level concepts behind ARIA, what is required to “make it work”, and how to write efficient code for ARIA-enabled widgets using jQuery. There will be plenty of code and demos throughout so bring your laptop!

The technial problems cost way too much time; would have loved to see more examples with explanations of the code.

This was one of my favorite presentations of the conference, and wish that technical issues hadn't cut the time in half.
Joe clearly has a passion and great knowledge about designing accessible applications and did his best to explain things quickly yet clearly in the 15 minutes that he had. The presentation could have easily been an hour-long session.

Hey Jörn,
I totally agree. The technicals cut my talk time in half. However, the link to all the demos is here:
I plan on blogging with some code explanation and would be glad to answer any questions you may have.

This session probably should have been given in a plenary-session, or slotted in two or more slots, since this is new for a vast majority of developers.
ARIA is an edge that all developers could use in a variety of suasive situations. Think of it as an ace-in-the-hole to landing sales, or the source of a sustainable competitive advantage for large projects.
It's really hard to overstate the advantage ARIA can give you over the other schmucks you may be competing-with.
At minimum say a 10-minute plenary-session teaser that would point to the session...
Technical issues delaying the first 10-minutes aside, great talk. The material got conveyed.

These widgets are so good to build. They definitely make things easier. I think doing it with jquery is a good thing. casino en ligne
