    I picked this one because we have been having more students with epileptic issues and while people with epilepsy are browsing web sites, they
    may encounter pages that have blinking texts and
    animation that may trigger seizures. Sudden loud sounds
    and repetitive audio in some web pages can also cause
    epileptic seizures. Here we think that the more bling the better; according to sources within this article it is not the case for those suffering from many medical issues.

    Again, this is truly a disservice to people with special needs. Facebook is supposed to be the big social network that has the voice of the world. I don't hear everyone's voice being represented based on Tina's video. Large scale companies do not always consider the smaller populations. The babyboomers are coming of age and there are quite a few of them to be considered as consumers and potential participants who may or may not have computer skills.
