Typecasting

I've been following this "Strikethru" blog for a while, but now there's a summary video posted there of the year's most brilliant uses of typewriters. Yes, there are a whole bunch of people who on occasion type their blog posts on a typewriter, and then post them as images on the web. Is that cool or what!

And now someone has invented yet another fun thing to do with crayons: use them to make transfer paper (like we do with graphite to transfer drawings in Ye Olde Way) so you can type in color. OMG OMG OMG.

  1. Thanks for posting about my blog! Isn't colorcasting cool? Check out http://clickthing.blogspot.com/ because that guy knows how to invent cool retrotech stuff-- including colorcasting, which was entirely his idea. .
