  • Resumen

  • In episode 278 of iCantCU, I start off with some good news from the fantasy football world. Out of the three leagues I played in this year, I won two championships, including the NFB Students fundraising league with my team Ziggy FC. Yahoo’s fantasy sports app, while not perfect, is a standout example of accessibility done right. Unfortunately, not every organization gets accessibility right. I also talk about AbilityLinks, a job site for the disabled community. Their emails included a QR code with critical information, but it wasn’t screen-reader-friendly. For an organization that claims to serve the disabled, especially when blindness is considered a disability, this felt like a real miss. It’s frustrating, and I wonder why they didn’t just use a simple link. On the personal side, I’ve been working hard to migrate my website, iCantCU.com, to a new host. Along the way, I rediscovered some old email accounts, including one I’d set up for restaurant coupons. It’s funny to think about how much has changed since I started using the domain nearly 19 years ago. Looking ahead, I’m heading to PodFest in Orlando, my first since 2020, and then to Washington for the NFB’s Washington Seminar. I’m excited for what’s to come—stay tuned!
