Daily Sucker #2 for Tuesday, May 12, 2009

Harvard University(for those who don’t like to read and just want the link)

Vincent Flanders’ comments: A couple of days ago I mentioned that Harvard University didn’t understand the concepts of DNS and/or redirection. Today, I’m making them the Daily Sucker because they don’t understand the definition of contrast.

I ran the home page through AccessColor and the report said:

Both color difference and color brightness do not meet the recommended standard for 10.87% of the total text.

Either color difference or color brightness does not meet the recommended standard for 23.37% of the total the text.

Here’s a screen shot of the full report. Mileage will vary because the home page changes frequently. This is a screen shot of the page I used to generate the report.

Oh. Harvard University uses Mystery Meat Navigation. I told you MMN was evil. Obviously, Harvard has turned to the dark site. You’ll find it under the main picture. At least they’re nice about it. You don’t have to click to see each news item. They’ve set it up so the four news items rotate.
