RintronAction

Anche quest'anno ho partecipato ad InnovAction, sistemandomi nel padiglione InnovAction YOUng al fine di raccogliere curricula ed altri contatti. Il raccolto è andato discretamente, e sono stati 4 giorni strepitosi, soprattutto grazie alle persone che ho incontrato lì: le squisite Silvia (alla quale si deve il nome RintronAction) e Serena di Europe Direct, le loro colleghe Eleonora e Luisa, Daniele e Alessandra, il mitico barman Omar, Rubina, l'infaticabile Enrico, Monica, ... insomma grazie a tutti per questi bei giorni!!!

Ye all know the operating system I use is Gentoo Linux, and ye all know the browser I use is Firefox. If you can read Italian, please take a look at this PDF file, a document released by the tax agency of the Italian region of Sicily.

The document is about a major revamping of the tax agency web site, in order for it to be usable by visually impaired users, and also by technically impaired people who use non-Windows operating systems and non-MSIE browsers. While the whole idea is very good, it's quite disturbing that non-Microsoft users (including me) are seen as people suffering of "technical difficulties" by a Government agency. Or, maybe I'm really handicapped and I don't realize it...?!? ;-)
