Used in conjunction with Lettering.js, Kern.js allows you to adjust kerning by simply selecting and dragging letters (or you can use the arrow keys). Once you’ve got your kerning looking the way you’d like, just hit the “finish editing” button and Kern.js will spit out the necessary CSS

I sympathise with the small players in any space Google enters. A little side-venture by Google would be a huge investment for anybody else

Two typographers ( Pierre & Damien / plmd.me ) and a pro race pilot (Stef van Campenhoudt) collaborated to design a font with a car. The car movements were tracked using a custom software, designed by interactive artist Zachary Lieberman. ( openframeworks.cc )

If you’ve made it through this article (congratulations, that’s no small feat!) and are now thinking to yourself, “I never thought I’d read 2,000 words on ampersands,” just remember how long it took me to write those 2,000 words. That’s 6 hours of my life I’ll never get back, folks.

unrestrained intergalactic planetary aviatrix Jane Fonda peeling off her space suit in the kind of weightlessness that has the viewer seeing past the errant reflection. Text spills from the head, chaotically at first, then coalesces in credit, and finally plays the coy cover up.
