We apologize for the mess and downtime of the last few days. Typographica underwent an upgrade to Movable Type 2.5 and hit some turbulence on the way. We’re about 90% operational now. What’s not working is Recent Comments and the cookie for saving personal poster info in comments. We’re taking volunteers to be our code doctor and address these and other PHP/MySQL/MT maladies. If you’ve got the skillz and some time to donate to your favorite typographic drug pusher, please contact us.

The most visible benefit of the shift to 2.5 is the search you see on the right. Enter a term like brutish and hit the button. Zammo.

On the way are some juicy news bits and a full review of the Indie Fonts specimen book. In the meantime, take a look at MEEK 3.0, the “world’s first postscript typographic synthesizer”. We’re not sure what it does either, but it looks really fancy. Thanks to Richard Wikstrom via Typophile for the link.
