Best of the Season!

December 23, 2003 by Michael Boyle

I’ll be out of town enjoying the holidays away from the city, so I thought I’d take this opportunity to wish all mikel.org readers and YULBloggers everywhere a happy and relaxing holiday season!

Searching!

December 19, 2003 by Michael Boyle

I am searching for a very important though very small thing that will make my life better in countless ways. In the old days, Eudora for Mac used a font called Mishawaka to render emails. I loved it and used it everywhere a fixed-width font was called for – in BBEdit, browsers, other email programs, etc. Trouble is, I can’t seem to find a standalone version anywhere. Does anyone out there have any pointers for me? Why is this pretty little typeface so hard to find?
Update – I ended up following a recommendation from a correspondent. I downloaded an old copy of Eudora and got the font from there. It turns out, though, that it is also available at an old UMich archive.

I’ve been subscribing to

December 16, 2003 by Michael Boyle

Jim Cashel’s Online Community Report for years now – since issue 1 – by email, but I hadn’t been by the site in a while. What was once just an afterthought (or so it seemed) has become quite an impressive site that has expanded as the concept of Virtual Community has expanded as well. It now covers social networks and many of the other new kinds of virtual community. Worth a look.
