Crazy, but I was literally managing my Fonts when I decided to
check my latest YouTube Subscriptions. This was at the Top of my
Queue.

Thanks for the video, but dayum, that interviewer was boring.
I loves me some font. I’ve always enjoyed the design and
creativity of a cool font. I’ve got one swimming in my head, but
don’t know what to do with it.
I was reading recent discussions about the Zite App
HTML http://pennycan.createaforum.com/general-discussion/apps/msg4952/#msg4952.<br
/>I’ve mentioned before, that is my go to app everyday to read t
he
collected articles I’m interested in. Zite has a smooth, easy to
read layout that they reformat from the original web page,
primarily using PT Sans from Paratype, but there are sprinklings
of Palatino and Cochin. And it looks like this…

Hey Mac, do you have a particular Font Manager you like? Anyone
that has owned a computer even for just a few years accumulates
a lot of fonts. And I'd say that 3/4th of any Font Library won't
ever be used on a personal or professional level.
I'm trying out a few Free Font Managers and right now I using
NexusFont
HTML http://xiles.net/nexusfont/.
It's pretty good for something that
you get for free. But I'm always on the lookout for even better
(i.e. Free) Font Managers.

I don't have any recommendations. I've not collected fonts for
awhile. Haven't done anything creative for awhile either. :-\

You make planes. Spray paint a font on the outside of it. 2

Blambot and Comicraft are the Big Two for those that work in the
Comic Book Industry. Along with fonts for saie, they have a wide
range of Free Fonts too. But if Free Fonts are all you want,
head over to Dafont for all the Free Fonts you can fit into your
Computer.

Very cool stuff. Some of the Logo's I've always knew regarding
"hidden" images. But I never picked up on the FedEx logo at all.
D'oh!!
