@RNIB Hi! May I ask you a favour?
I see, that you are using ALT-Text in your tweets to help the visually impaired.
Maybe you could the visually not impaired as well, with using the "!B" signature in your tweets to indicate that they contain ALT-Text? (1/x)
@RNIB As long as @twitter doesn't show the ALT-Symbol on pictures to every user, I have to use complicate work arounds to check, whether a tweet contains ALT-Text.
German users started to use the !B (short for #Bildbeschreibung which means ALT-text) at the end of an tweet. (2/x)
@RNIB @Twitter But you could also see it as an emoticon for glasses (just tilt your head).
Maybe we could introduce this as an international work around to raise awareness for the use of the ALT-Text-feature, at least as long as @twitter doesn't use it in every tweet with #Alt-Text...
(3/3)
