As a Typekit user, you’ll have access to our library of high-quality fonts. Just add a line of JavaScript to your markup, tell us what fonts you want to use, and then craft your pages the way you always have. Except now you’ll be able to use real fonts. This really is going to change web design.
While it won’t turn the web canvas into a sketch pad, it should offer up the ability for me to prettify the web on your computer even more.

Or there was my first attempt at plumbing, which was attempted at my shared residence/place of employment in college. And both were only spared due to the grace of God and the lucky fact that Lubbock Power & Light Services were open on a Sunday and equipped with a water main wrench. (I’ll detail this at a later date)
Fortunately for me, May 8th afforded another memory embedding. (more…)
The next time I get a desire to re-paint my office, there’s a decent possibility I will paint any and all surfaces available with IdeaPaint. It’s billed as Paint that transforms any surface into a dry erase board. Think of the possibilities and the fumes.
Imagine, a room where your kids are encouraged to write on the walls. Or ceiling, doors and desk for that matter.
