* The Issue
The WP Accessibility is an amazing plugin; you can download it here (http://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-accessibility/) or read more about its many features here (http://make.wordpress.org/accessibility/wp-accessibility-plugin/). Unfortunately, its menu for toggling high contrast/grayscale/font size has a browser-caused issue: the grayscale filter doesn't work in current Firefox (I'm using Mac Firefox 26.0). The plugin admin settings give you the option to turn off the grayscale button from that menu, but that means people using browsers other than Firefox don't get to use it.

* Solution Overview
My current solution is to use a media query to hide the grayscale button just on Firefox browsers. display:none is often a bad choice for accessibility because of how it interacts with screenreaders, but in this case the function in question (making a webpage appear in grayscale) is probably not needed by screenreading users. I didn't make the styling change to the plugin so that it isn't overwritten by plu

Annotator.js works on Drupal as two modules and a library (installed, as usual, under /sites/all):
    /modules/annotator
    /modules/annotation
    /libraries/annotator
The files in libraries/annotator are the latest from the Annotator.js repo (https://github.com/openannotation/annotator/releases). Although the modules Infinite Ulysses uses have been significantly changed from the modules you could download on Drupal.org, the Drupal.org Annotator (https://www.drupal.org/project/annotator) and Annotation (https://www.drupal.org/project/annotation) modules pages might still have useful info if you're troubleshooting. 

Instructions:
I'll refer to the two modules as "Annotator" and "Annotation" throughout, and use "libraries/annotator" if I'm referring to the JS library.

1. Rename /libraries/annotator folder as just "annotator" and place in your sites/all/libraries folder (create a libraries folder there if you don't already have one).

Section on Genius annotation. The full whitepaper this is from (lots of stuff on social annotation, digital editions, community reading!) is at dr.amandavisconti.com.

The Genius annotated version of Ulysses comes closest to my vision of a public conversation around Ulysses: visitors can highlight words or passages in the text and add their interpretations, questions, and comments1. Genius grew out of the "Rap Genius" site, a project allowing rap enthusiasts to annotate lyrics with interpretations and contextualizations on the same level as other types of poetry. Some of its design metaphors are more understandable knowing they arose from a music tradition rather than a print text annotation tradition.

Readers can up- or down-vote existing annotations as well as "promote" particular annotations onto the profile pages of users who follow their account. Genius grants locked-down, custom "classroom" versions of any text to a teacher and the users the teacher allows; these versions are stripped of all existing a
