The perils of hosting content on third party web sites
As usual, a fascinating posting on the UseIT web site. This is not specific about the 50-plus, but if you have any responsibility for web content then you should read.
Most of the article is about the risks you take when your video hosting is a third party, like YouTube, because they control the thumbnail of the video presented on your web site.
It is a subject I have never considered before but when you look at the examples it is blindingly clear how the usability of the site can be degraded. Dick Stroud
