As a type freak I think this is cool:


ANNOUNCING THE TYPETALK MAILING LIST
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There now exists an Internet mailing list dedicated to all manner of
discussions related to typography and graphic design. Note that this list
is interested primarily in the ARTISTIC aspects of graphic design. The
list is unmoderated, and no one will censor what you say, but questions of
the "Why won't my TrueType font print on my HP LaserJet?" and "Why won't
SuperATM work with <a certain font>?" sort are best directed to the
newsgroup comp.fonts.

Now that that's out of the way, feel free to post any kind of question or
comment about any aspect of graphic design, past, present, or future.
Examples:


designers, graphic movements, typefaces, and the like (don't hold your
feelings back!)


_I.D._, _Print_, _Step-by-Step Graphics_, _Graphis_, etc.)

places-- on bicycles, for example, or on TV, on pricetags, whatever

      Note that this Typetalk mailing list has nothing to do with the
Typetalk relay service in the U.K.
