Month: December 2007
Sayonara 2007 Welcome to the last Sunday Type of 2007. It has certainly been an interesting year. I recently received an email from a reader pointing out that the links to my archives, prior to August 2007 are missing. Well, of course, that’s because iLT didn’t come into existence until that month; it certainly feels […] A Merry Typemas Am I really writing this on the eve of Christmas Eve!

There will be no snow on this blog. I’m sure that most of you–being incredibly well-organised–will have completed your Christmas shopping by now. For those who haven’t, here are some gift ideas for […] The Psychopathology of Fonts Yet another week whizzes by. I’m in the UK now.
