    Default A little treat for budding font designers

    I came across a post at fastcodesign that linked to this video: http://vimeo.com/19429698

    From fastco:

    This little film is a must-see for anyone who is in/ obsessed with/ remotely interested in design. It's a sneak peek inside the mind of Erik Spiekermann, cofounder of both MetaDesign and FontShop (the world's first distributor of digital fonts), and all around typography demigod.
