New Format

Joshua Lurie-Terrell on April 1, 2005

Due to changing personal interests, as of today Typographica’s format changes to a discussion of preventive dentifrice, and all articles will be posted in the form of a question. Thanks for your attention over the years and hopefully you will find our new emphasis as interesting as Stephen and I will.

To start this exciting new chapter out right: Have you visitied Toothpaste World, which apparently houses the world’s single largest collection of this magical substance?

    I feared people were going illitereate while over-caring for their fitness and body health…
    It would not be so strange. The brain gets rusty if you use it just to figure out how to please yourself in your current activity or in general hedonism.
    Maybe by them we’ll all have a copy of Orange Italic’s Luxury.

    This scared me so much, it momentarily
    made my complexion… pasty. (Sorry.)

    Speaking about new formats. Will the move to typographica.org bring some important changes to this blog?
