Accessibility BarCamp Seattle Logo
Andrew has "created a logo for our event. the typical wheelchair icon isn't representative of all disabled people. particularly as it pertains to web accessibility. In contrast, my logo is meant to represent the 4 groups that web accessibility serves - blind, deaf, physically impaired, and cognitively impaired."

twaud.io
This is me testing twaud.io which is a site where you can actually record online and send the result to your twitter account. All you need is a mic attached to your computer. Notice that the audio clip does not play here. That is because twaud.io is insisting that they serve it to you. You need to go to the link below to actually hear it. I wonder if their site is accessible and if their audio player is accessible.

This is an animated image which shows a door opening and spooky eyes and a ghoast comming out. It is on a black background so it will go well as the icon on your page. Unfortunately i can't make an avatar out of it because i don't have the time to animate it. I can however put up just a picture of a door.
