Acessibility

The client-side code for this website has been written with accessibility in mind—it uses semantic markup, and degrades gracefully in most scenarios. However, we’ve decided to go ahead and use some CSS3 selectors and behaviours, so if you’re using a browser that doesn’t support these, then you’re not seeing the site as it was meant to be seen. You should also make sure javascript and images are enabled, and if you want to use the audio player, you’ll have to install and activate the Adobe Flash Player plugin. Note also that the site uses @font-face, which at the time of launch still has shaky support across platforms and browsers—but as long as you use a browser with CSS3 support, you should be fine.
