"Orvieto, Italy, November 6, 2009: In partnership with the OpenOffice.org community, WarMouse announced the release of the OpenOfficeMouse, the first multi-button application mouse designed for the world's leading open-source office productivity suite. With a revolutionary and patented design featuring 18 buttons, an analog joystick, and support for as many as 52 key commands, the OpenOfficeMouse is intended to provide a faster and more efficient user interface for OpenOffice.org applications such as Writer and Calc than the conventional icons, pull-down menus, and hotkeys presently permit."

It can take a career to master the fine details and nuances of setting type, whether for editorial, advertising, literary works, graphic design or any other application of letterforms. Everybody has their own methods to choosing the right typeface for a particular job, and in this post I’m going to be going over my thought & elimination processes."
