Learning About Typography

04/17/15

So, I fell down an unexpectedly interesting rabbit-hloe the other day. It started with a link to Pollen: the book is a program, which I realize now has a link to my final destination right there, but I followed some other links for a while.

I was reading Pollen up until the end of 3 Backstory wherein I encountered Why Racket? Why Lisp?. I almost always enjoy any reading I do on Lisp, I really should do some playing with it.

It was at this point that I realized I was in a book about Typography, and when I got to websites that I realized, "Hey, this would be a pretty smart thing to know about when I start rewriting the CSS for my site."

And so I'm learning about typography, and in the process I'm getting to read all sorts of interesting opinions and thoughts like how to pay for the book and the infinite-pixel screen.

Delicious food-for-thought that keeps linking to other delciious food-for-thought, and best-of-all, it may soon be applicable for me.
