Looks like many people liked this series, so there will definitely be more. Plus I too enjoy my little type investigations on Web ;-) Thanks, Kristarella. Yes, the curly braces are becoming very popular on sites, but only in the hands of Jon and John they get the shiny look ;-) Thanks, John.

Jon definitely has a unique and ingenious site. It's difficult not to want to copy some of the coolness (like using curly braces. I guess iLoveTypography uses curly braces too... I've seen more people adding them in to not as lovely effect. Great post. Jon definitely has a unique and ingenious site.

Indeed, Jon is using a very delicate Cochin italic on the about page. Fortunately, I can see it, not sure about Windows users. Jon has defined the fall back fonts for those who don't have Cochin installed: font-family:cochin,baskerville,'palatino linotype',georgia,serif; Hi Taylor.

When I tried it out the first time, I quickly wrote two sentences, and got the results that there were 15 words in what was written and all of them unique, however my Ego count was 3 (I, I am, my), but the good thing was that I didn't use any of the "Valley girl" jargons, that count was 0 ;-) Jacob, judging by what you said, one can assume that print jobs don't require as much patience as the web work? ;-) Lauren, thanks a lot. I will continue with this series and hopefully you'll find the future articles as interesting and helpful ;-) Chris, hope you’ll be in a mood and will have time to work some more on your Writing analysis tool.
