  2. @smartalecvt Don't tell anyone, but I'm working on a text version that will have more weights, italics, small caps, yada, yada.
  3. @smartalecvt Cool! I'm always curious to see what people are doing with the font.
  4. @smartalecvt Great to hear about your using Toronto Subway! Any chance I can see the animation when it's done? #fonts #typography

  7. Harry Marks: "I'm Giving Up Reading for a Year" bit.ly/IYueKy Will he follow through on satire or is it a quick jab? #blogs #satire
  8. Type Matters ilovetypography.com/2012/05/02/typ… Nice, but still not quite the definitive intro to typography. Who will finally get it all right?
  9. Tor books to go DRM free! tor.com/blogs/2012/04/… Like @daringfireball, I hope this is start of a trend. DRM is bad for readers. #ebooks #epub

  12. Reading @PenguinClassics ebook of The Golden Bowl. Many typos & misformatting from OCR. Is this sloppy quality usual of Penguin ebooks?
  13. @ChristianAnnyas Sorry, but it's difficult to read text on your site with all the grey on grey. Needs darker text, lighter backgrounds.
  14. @trevorkluke Thanks. Much more legible on Mark Simonson's own site.
  15. @trevorkluke Yes, a very dark site; grey on grey on grey on grey.
  16. Interesting critique of typography in The Artist annyas.com/artist-movie-t… but crappy website design.
  17. Beautiful Chicago transit posters from the 1920s. salon.com/2012/01/27/pos…
