  1. : What do you call a candidate's attendance at Trump fundraiser in Vegas while he was clinching the nomination in a big state? #Feckless
  2. @jpodhoretz: "Occupy Wall Street is biggest nothingburger since the release of 'The Great Gatsby'… in 1974.” No no, that was the Tea Party.
  3. @jontangerine : Indeed! If the "publication space" is to survive, were going to have to a better job with the design than we did on the web.
  4. @jontangerine : The trick to make a digital publication that's both linkable and readable. Apps fail the first; most web sites the latter.
  5. : Portals and pubs: As music biz devolved from albums to songs, with shared articles often you want the whole album. rogerblack.com/blog/post/port…
  6. : Thanks to Beryl, there's bodysurfing on Pass-a-Grille beach today!
  7. : "'Can you hear me now?' Yes, we can all hear you, and it’s extremely annoying."—Michelle Singletary wapo.st/JWyU7l
  8. : "They’re willing to snatch food from the mouths of babes—literally."—Krugman nyti.ms/KUEOT3
  9. : "Feckless"? latimes.com/news/politics/…
  10. : "Tampa police study Chicago protests to hone RNC strategy" It's a lot more like 1968. #Occupy tampabay.com/news/politics/… via @TB_Times
  11. : "Haven’t I been told for 30 years now that Democratic racists in Southern states had left their party?"--@jpodhoretz nyp.st/MxyW3z
  12. : If you had to use just one typeface? —@feedmartin No hesitation: @fontbureau Ionic (special order) or @webtype Benton Modern RE.
  13. : Like getting mistaken for a track star. Better than being confused with a clown. “@KoolHeadsCoach: Fantastic speeches from @rogerblack …"
  14. : "Uninspiring by design." Joshua Topolsky on the ho-hum level of electronic product design. wapo.st/Jt7guE
  15. “@klimtypefoundry: "Why fail to mention the non- @webtype fonts, Stag and Stag Sans?” Sorry. Stag is cool. Focused on the text. RE rules!
