Diversions 5

Social Network Transitions
Fred Stutzman with a well-written post highlighting the relative strengths/weaknesses of object-centric and ego-centric networks. I completely agree.

Always wondered why people wibbled on about letterpress printing so much. Now I know.
Feelscript
Alejandro Paul has released another extraordinarily beautiful typeface.
