Friday, May 19, 2006 EDT PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVE: This e-mail-based request is intended for anyone who wants to have a chance to view and "run through the wringer" one man's first-pass solution toward providing 'Ubiquitous Web Access' based on adherence to his own collective set of ten Web Site Best Practices --- see http://sonoffconsulting.com/scsi_pkt_perfect_10_web_best_practices_diagram_w ith_hyperlinks.pdf --- all of which are easily testable and verifiable and are implemented throughout the entire sonoffconsulting.com domain: DEFINITION, BACKGROUND, AND SUMMARY: On the Scsi P&KT Web site's Home page is the following section with its supporting statements: Scsi's Working Definition of Universal Web Accessibility and Web Usability = "World Class Level" Web Sites Anyone, anywhere, using any Internet-enabled device, any operating system, and any (Web- or text mode-based) browser should be enabled - by the Web site personnel's adherence to judicious design principles and Best Practices - to accomplish basic tasks, including the following: Readily access any Web page within the Web site's domain Easily navigate (regardless of the navigation tool chosen, e.g., keyboard, mouse, or other pointing device) within and among its Web pages Display any Web page's contents without imposing any restrictions on the user as to screen resolution or viewing window size All of these benefits, and many more in fact, are manifested throughout the sonoffconsulting.com domain. Scsi's P&KT Web site is clearly focused on serving as an exemplary working model that clearly and convincingly demonstrates what "The Ubiquitous Web Domain" describes as a goal to strive to reach. Hopefully, you will end up agreeing that Scsi has carried this Web site development effort to the point of achieving at least a first-pass Ubiquitous Web Access solution that is available here and now, is based on existing mature technologies, employs a from-the-ground-up Web standards-based design architecture and relevant methodologies, and retains an emphasis on simplicity over complexity at all times.
