Tired of faffing around cleaning up shoddy markup when carrying out accessibility assessments?

Not enough hours in the day to tinker with the many options in the HTML De-crapulator?

Then what you need is the '1-Click De-crapulator'!

Another tool I put together a while back but only just submitted it - a little tool that copies URLs of open tabs and copies to clipboard in various formats:

Something I did a while back but just noticed I never linked to it from a11y-tools home page: a GitHub repo for PolyPane workspaces geared to accessibility testing:

👉 github.com/lloydi/PolyP...

You might not be aware of these and find them useful 😊

Got sent some old pics, and found this gem of me DJing at home (around 1993). I still have those decks! (And the Novations Bass Station keyboard)

I don’t think we should have ceded control quite so quickly and without so much as a fight.

Using dictation and a brief hesitation when saying 'photos' resulted in "I cannot find that in my phone toes". And why would I?

17 years ago, my brother replaced my other brother’s tennis racket with a frying pan and he went to school with it. Was pretty funny at the time. Anyway, today, my brother finally got his payback. Replaced older brother’s work laptop with a chopping board. Imagine waiting 17 years for payback 😂

If you work somewhere that still communicates via X, this week is a good one to petition comms folks to stop using it

This was a gorgeous little laptop. I would LOVE to see something like this from Apple again.
23 years ago today, Apple introduced what remains the greatest laptop of all time: the 12-inch PowerBook G4.

The collab that nobody saw coming, including me, but here we have it: me and the baritone voice of @letorey.co.uk on an acid track. If you know Dave, you'll know it's him!

Disappointed that Vispero have airbrushed out author details from a whole raft of articles on their blog (including mine). Not a good move, in my opinion 😭

I guess I’m not going back to America any time soon.
Absolutely insane list

I've just checked on the social media requirement, because this has been on the ESTA application for a few years now but you were able to leave it blank

Giving details of your social media will be a mandatory requirement to get an ESTA
This is the full list of info the US is proposing to require from applicants for an ESTA (electronic travel authorisation) to secure visa-free travel to America. This would apply to every UK holidaymaker, conference attendee or businessperson. public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2025-22461.pdf
