		<title>Winners, losers and fonts in the eBook revolution</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A couple of weeks ago I bought a Kindle, Amazon&#8217;s dedicated eBook reader device.

		<title>Hypatia Sans typeface finally shipping</title>
		<description><![CDATA[As many folks in the font biz already know, a while back I designed a typeface called Hypatia Sans.

		<description><![CDATA[This post by Jeffrey Zeldman on font rendering in web browsers is a good introduction to the subject in a number of respects, but unfortunately repeats a pernicious myth: that web browsers on Windows all render text differently, and that this interacts with the OS rendering. There are a couple of caveats (see below), but [...]]]></description>

		<title>Boing Boing Redesign Uncovers Web Font Ignorance</title>
		<description><![CDATA[People keep on sending me links to this article  “Boing Boing's Redesign Uncovers Dark Side of Web Fonts,” about problems Boing Boing had with their new web font implementation. Only thing is, the article has a substantial dose of nonsense mixed in with the perfectly good analysis. I don’t blame the writer, though.

		<title>Microsoft Office 2010 adds OpenType goodness</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The Office 2010 technical preview is due out in July, and one can sign up to test with it.
