Rankings for YouTube video greetings Posted: 10 May 2021 08:41 AM PDT If you’ve watched even just a few videos on YouTube, you probably noticed that many videos, especially those in the vlogging genre, start the same way: “Hey guys.” YouTube Culture & Trends confirms this. “What’s up” and “Good morning” currently take the second and third spots. They also looked at how it ranks against other greetings and varies with different genres. Sports videos most commonly start with “What is going” (I assume followed by “on”) and tech starts with “Ladies and gentlemen.” Tags: greetings, YouTube

Visualization accessibility Posted: 10 May 2021 12:05 AM PDT Øystein Moseng for Highcharts provides a brief guide on making your visualizations for accessible. Guideline #4 on not relying completely on color to show the data: Relying on color as the only means of communicating information is a failure of one of the basic WCAG success criteria. This is because many users may not be able to distinguish between the different colors used. Data labels, symbols, annotations and tooltips are some common ways to convey additional information in visualizations without relying on color. In addition, alternate presentations – such as an accessible data table – can be helpful. It is still encouraged to use color as a supplement to these techniques, this can make visualizations easier to understand, and in many cases more accessible. Tags: accessibility
