I Love Typography — I love it! Without writing too much about it, I would like to mention that I won a free copy of The Complete Manual of Typography from iLT! Thanks John (for the book and the site)! I might also mention that I recently won a free copy of FontBook from Kirby Ferguson over at Goodie Bag — thanks again, Kirby!

Alphabet City — Jason Santa Maria recently went on a typography walking tour led by Tobias Frere-Jones of the venerable H&FJ type foundry of which he notes “There are few chances to be lead around such a historic city to look at interesting typography by someone so knowledgeable of craft and heritage.” Ain’t that the truth! I wish I could have been there.
