I support web standards!

Mon­day, Novem­ber 30, 2009 is the 3rd annual Blue Beanie Day. Started by Doug Vos, Blue Beanie Day is a way to show sup­port for web stan­dards and accessibility.

Excerpt from the 3rd Annual Blue Beanie Day Event Page:

It’s easy to show your sup­port for web design done right. Beg, bor­row, or buy a Blue Beanie (or Blue Toque in Canada) and snap a photo of your mug wear­ing the blue. (Or get cre­ative with Pho­to­shop). Then on Novem­ber 30, switch your pro­file pic­ture in Face­book, Twit­ter, Flickr, (and any other social net­work) and post your photo to the Flickr Blue Beanie Day 2009 group.

Want to help with plan­ning the 3rd Annual Blue Beanie Day? Plan­ning a meetup or tweetup in your home­town? Orga­niz­ing a group photo in your city? You might qual­ify to win a free copy of Zeld­man and Marcotte’s (brand new) Design­ing With Web Stan­dards 3rd edi­tion. Con­tact Dou­glas Vos.

Kevin Cor­nell makes it even eas­ier for us this year by pro­vid­ing an illus­trated blue beanie pho­to­shop file.

So don a blue beanie, spread the word and keep work­ing towards a truly open web.
Some of my col­legues also sup­port Webstandards:
