This book examines how digital design is triggering disability when it could be a solution. Video and animation now plays a prominent role in the World Wide Web and new types of protocols have been developed to accommodate this increasing complexity. However, as this has happened the potential for individual users to control how the content is displayed has been diminished.

Kent and Ellis build on this notion and apply it to more recent Web 2.0 phenomena, social networking sites, virtual worlds and file sharing.
