Update resources
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
As discussed in #127, Joe's list is not being maintained/updated anymore. That's why I [proposed](a11yproject/a11yproject.com#707) to update the "who to follow" section from [The A11y Project](https://www.a11yproject.com/follow/) to this repository instead.

That's why I've updated the resources once again, adding some more people, companies and meetups. I've also created a conferences section.
