Welcome to accessibility chat, AKA #a11ychat! October's #a11ychat topic is Accessibility Tricks and Treats, but there's a twist!  This month we want YOU to lead the discussion, and we want you submit and discuss your favorite a11y tricks and tips.   At the end of the session, the Deque team will vote on the best accessibility tips and tricks, and there will be prizes for the top 5 submissions.  Four second place winners will each win a $25 Amazon gift card, and first prize winner will receive a $100 Amazon gift card!   All five winning submissions will be featured in the October ACE newsletter; so if you want to find out who made the cut, you'd better sign up!     To participate, you can view and contribute through whatever method you currently use for Twitter, or you can chat through this tool, Twebevent, http://tweetchat.com or http://www.easychirp.com/, which is an accessible Twitter tool. Good luck! (November's #a11ychat is on 11/19/12 at 5PM EST)   edit introduction Any media provider should offer an "Embed" option.
