First up: <strong>Peer-to-Peer Accessibility in Social Networks<\/strong>, a\u00a0paper exploring how web accessibility can be socially mediated by peers within social networks, using evidence from research with disabled students at UK Universities.\u00a0The introduction is reproduced below, with a PDF of the full document (approximately 1,500 words) available below, both for download and embedded in Google&#8217;s PDF viewer. If you would like to read the paper in a different format, please don&#8217;t hesitate to get in touch.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Peer to Peer accessibility in social networks.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This paper considers the influence of peers on disabled user\u2019s experiences of accessibility in the social network Facebook. It highlights the positive role that friends can play in mitigating inaccessible systems. It also highlights the importance of social dynamics for acquiring access to digital domains. This contrary observation &#8211;\u00a0 that disabled users with greater social resources will be better able to access and develop online social networks \u2013 suggests a digital divide that is, as yet, under researched. The paper uses findings from doctoral case study research with disabled students at UK universities to identify social aspects of accessibility and how these manifest in disabled students\u2019 experience.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.slewth.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Lewthwaite-Peer-To-Peer-Accessibility-CSUN-Abstract-2012.pdf\">&#8216;Peer-To-Peer Accessibility&#8217; PDF<\/a><\/p>\n<p><![if !IE]><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/docs.google.com\/viewer?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.slewth.co.uk%2Fblog%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2012%2F01%2FLewthwaite-Peer-To-Peer-Accessibility-CSUN-Abstract-2012.pdf&amp;embedded=true\" class=\"pdf\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"height:750px;width:500px;border:0\" width=\"500\" height=\"750\"><\/iframe><![endif]><!--[if IE]><object width=\"500\" height=\"750\" type=\"application\/pdf\" data=\"http:\/\/www.slewth.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Lewthwaite-Peer-To-Peer-Accessibility-CSUN-Abstract-2012.pdf\" class=\"pdf ie\">\n \n<div style=\"width:500;height:750;text-align:center;background:#fff;color:#000;margin:0;border:0;padding:0\">Unable to display PDF<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.slewth.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/01\/Lewthwaite-Peer-To-Peer-Accessibility-CSUN-Abstract-2012.pdf\">Click here to download<\/a><\/div>\n \n<\/object><![endif]--><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\r\n\t\t<!-- BEGIN ODIOGO LISTEN BUTTON v2.5.7 (WP) -->\r\n\t\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\" language=\"javascript\">\r\n\t\t<!--\r\n\t\t\/\/ ODIOGO_START:do_NOT_remove_this_comment\r\n\t\tshowOdiogoReadNowButton (\"687068\", \"Peer to Peer Accessibility in Social Networks\", \"1474\", 290, 55);\r\n\t\t\/\/ -->\r\n\t\t<\/script>\r\n\t\t<br\/>\r\n\t\t<script type=\"text\/javascript\" language=\"javascript\">\r\n\t\t<!--\r\n\t\tshowInitialOdiogoReadNowFrame (\"687068\", \"1474\", 290, 0);\r\n\t\t\/\/ ODIOGO_END:do_NOT_remove_this_comment\r\n\t\t\/\/ -->\r\n\t\t<\/script>\r\n\t\t<!-- END ODIOGO LISTEN BUTTON v2.5.7 (WP) -->\r\n\t\t\n<p>Over the course of the Christmas break the schedule for the CSUN conference was released.
