[Update: Fixed broken links]
I generally won't respond to those things I perceive to be "blog chain letters" ... where someone tags a group of their blog-friends to write about the same thought-provoking question (what 5 women have most inspired you, what were you doing 10, 5 and 1 year ago, etc.). Not that there's anything wrong with that. I figure my audience really doesn't *care* about that from me.
However, you'll be pleased to note, I will respond to incredibly geeky things like "Type each letter in the alphabet into your browser address bar and see what comes up. Then report back." [via ChrisNolan.ca via Randy via ed kohler]

Bonus Link: A Critique of the Alphabet. Great, fun post over at "Speak Up". From the post:
That alphabet. It’s been around a long time, and I, for one, have some complaints. Don’t you think it’s time for a redesign? I mean, the thing’s not exactly “fresh” anymore, is it?
The lowercase p is really nice, especially when you let the descender get really long, but this whole ball and stick thing … c’mon guys, get over it! Given a choice, I prefer the p to the b, but the b did it first. That cap P, though, is just totally not working! It’s so top heavy it looks like it’s going to fall over! This whole letterform needs rethinking.
