Have you heard of the Jam card. It is available as a card or an app.

JAM stands for just a minute. It's a scheme that aims to help raise awareness with all kinds of service providers that some of us need a little more time during various transactions.

A great resource for autistic folks, those with learning disabilities or anyone with a hidden disability who would like a discrete way to ask for a little more time.

How do you make #data #visualizations #accessible to the #blind and visually impaired? JooYoung Seo (who is himself blind) is developing a tool for this purpose, using a mix of sound and #Braille. He'll soon make it #OpenSource.

My new social media app is called Grouse. You can only post criticism of the 3,000 other new social media apps.

Posts are called “Gripes.” No likes or reposts—just one button to “Commiserate.” If a Gripe receives enough Commiseration it’s elevated by the algorithm into a “Complaint.”

Also there’s an academic version called “Faculty Meeting.”
