Support web standards, wear a blue beanie!

Designing With Web Standards by Jeffrey Zeldman

On Friday, November 28, standardistas all over the world shall unite to celebrate the 2nd Blue Beanie Day, an informal event promoting web standards and accessibility. Participants are invited to wear a blue beanie—like the one Jeffrey Zeldman wore on the cover of Designing With Web Standards—then snap a photo of themselves and share it with everyone.

You don’t even have to own a beanie though. It could be some other headgear variant, or even a Photoshop mockup! The idea is to bring people together and have fun by doing something outside of coding standards-compliant markup.

Join the Facebook event page and the Flickr group and post your photos there.
