Accessibility: It's about people - new videos in How People with Disabilities Use the Web

Dear WAI Interest Group,

We are pleased to share an updated resource with new videos highlighting "Accessibility: It's about people":

     How People with Disabilities Use the Web
https://www.w3.org/WAI/people-use-web/

This resource introduces how disabled people use the web, including people with age-related impairments. It helps developers, designers, content creators, and others understand the reasons behind creating accessible digital products - including websites, apps, browsers, and other web tools. It covers:

  * Stories of Web Users ('personas') – represent the experiences of people with different disabilities.
  * Diverse Abilities and Barriers – introduces the wide diversity of abilities, and highlights some accessibility barriers that people experience because of inaccessible digital technology.
  * Tools and Techniques – covers the tools and techniques that disabled people use to interact with digital technology.

Updates:
The stories of web users are significantly updated. There are new videos to go along with the stories and the other pages.

Comments:
We welcome your input into future revisions of this resource. Near the bottom of each page is a "Help improve this page" box with links to GitHub and e-mail.
