The Fifth Annual International Blue Beanie Day in support of web standards will be celebrated Wednesday, November 30, 2011. Here’s how to participate:
Take a self-portrait wearing a blue beanie (toque, tuque, cap) and upload it to the Blue Beanie Day 2011 pool on Flickr. Alternately (or in addition) upload your photo to Instagram, and announce on Twitter using the hashtag #bbd11.
Add a blue beanie to your social network avatar on Twitter, Facebook, Google+, Flickr, etc.
