We haven't done much with #Bicycling #Monterey's YouTube channel—mostly because we provide bikemonterey.org and all bike advocacy projects to date (May 2009-April 2023) as a volunteer and simply can't do more tasks; and partly because #YouTube is a Google company.

Nonetheless, we posted our new video on YouTube this week "ANDAR EN BICICLETA EN LAS ACERAS además de ejemplos de ordenanzas del Condado de Monterey, California," including transcript/subtitles.

That motivated us to type up subtitles for 2 short #videos we'd previously posted on our channel: "BikeMonterey.org - Sea Otter Classic, a Celebration of Cycling - Detox!" and "BikeMonterey.org - HER Helmet Thursdays welcome from Alvarado St, Monterey."

We truly appreciate those (even bots) for reminding of importance of #subtitles, photo #descriptions, #AltText, etc. Just wish for more hours in the day to provide them, including time required to write better #PhotoDescriptions.

@jackmjenkins Use #ContentWarnings much more liberally (for politics, discussion of other social media sites, even food — give people the option to read about whatever it is. Use more hashtags and capitalize all the words in a hashtag for better readability. #CamelCase. Definitely add #PhotoDescriptions.
