Don’t Be That Person Who Uses Verdana
The story of lawyer/type designer, Matthew Butterick, sending a letter to film director, Brad Bird, calling him out on his use of Verdana in Mission Impossible is a great example of how society is becoming more typographically conscience. Sure, Mr. Butterick is a typographer that knows good type from bad type, but the list of people who know the difference between Helvetica and Arial is growing daily. Film makers, lawyers, bloggers, and even rappers are upping their type game and the world is taking notice. Moral of the story, don’t be that person who uses Verdana, get emotional over fonts.
Julie Brown and I are currently developing a location app inspired board game called Places and Co.! We’re treating it like a tech startup, cause that’s how we roll. Follow our progress on Tumblr, Twitter and or Facebook etc. etc.!
We’re excited. Our little seed of a board game idea is poking up from underneath the soil. What started around a year ago with some sketches and a few brainstorming sessions, is now a full blown playable prototype. To paraphrase the wonderful Dr. Seuss, we’re off to great places!
Embarrassed to admit of the Day: I never formally introduced my lil’ company I co-founded a year ago, Conversated. We do our bestest to create original branded content with proven web stars. Think the sponsor scene from Wayne’s World but more organic. If you’re into that sort of thing, follow us on Twitter and or Like us on Facebook.
