Web Adaptability Conference 2006: Are we making the best progress possible?

La Trobe University Melbourne.

Adaptability is about ensuring that everyone who wants to access digital content can do so if they have appropriate devices and telecommunications. Currently this is not the case - large Web pages rarely fit on small hand-held device screens, let alone phone screens, and most interesting sites are not accessible to people with adaptive tchnologies because the resources are not well-formed.

A networked community is not a networked community unless everyone can participate. This conference provides a forum for considering all issues related to adaptability with the aim of making the Web universally accessible and including everyone in the networked world.
