手書きフォントで文章が書ける『Pilot Hand Writing』を試してみたよ (via IDEA*IDEA)
Intriguing. Pilot have a little doodad that lets you turn your handwriting into a font. Can’t wait to get new printer toner so I can give this a shot. :P

I love this letterpress Ampersand Identification Chart, by Douglas Wilson. It’s £35, and it comes with an identification card with the names of the 61 ampersands. (Via swissmiss.)

What type are you? (password: character) (via cloudwalking)
I’m Plastica, which doesn’t seem to exist. Umbra is similar, but not quite the same.
Although that’s if I describe myself as Traditional, which I can be at times. But I can also be Progressive, which makes me dot matrix.

A lengthy discussion of the typeface for the London Underground, both the old version by Edward Johnston as well as the refresh.
“We continue to make subtle changes” Ashworth admits, “but we’re very wary about doing too much and are always happy to roll back changes if they end up not feeling ‘right.’
“The most recent major change was to the numbers 1 and 4 earlier this year. Not a lot of people noticed until a poster appeared advertising engineering work on the 14th of February — then I got A LOT of emails.”
