Feedback from electronic controls is critical, and has a long history (subtle audio signal clicks on telephone lines that many folks assume are part of the process of connecting to a call). Users need to distinguish between something going wrong (locked up phone, slow phone, connection blip, bad connection, website just went down) and it going as expected. I think feedback is not only critical but often missing and needs attention. This is an accessibility issue because lack of feedback increases cognitive effort and can increase steps. > > Cheers, > Kim +1 This is why it went into the BBC Mobile Accessibility Standards and Guidelines
