The best bit of this marvellous conference was being queried about S4C’s social strategy while sitting amongst S4C’s social strategists! 😅

[Alun J @alunj92]

Good Lord, @acttrainingltd’s Cardiff HQ is lovely 😍

Accessibility is critical.

Alt-text supports a disabled audience
• It describes the function/appearance of a photo/graphic
• A little consideration goes a long way
• Used as a creative, editorial tool, alt-text can be brand-defining

I've started to think of ALT text as a creative, editorial space as opposed to a basic description of an image.

I've long been of the opinion that where we tweet bilingually, the Welsh language should *add value*, not replicate.

The same applies here, imho 👇

@KerynSeal4 @turfcreative Out of interest, Keryn, what do you make of the alt text connected to the photography in the tweet below? https://t.co/o4HJ0x4bex

Does @NFFC now have to become my second-favourite football team? 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

This was a lot of fun.

Nice to talk about the social that’s impressed me, and also some of the content I’ve worked on – particularly @YesCymru’s viral “Republic of Wales” night!

Diolch for the opportunity, @SproutSocial & @Cat_grl.
