FONTASTIC IDEA OF THE DAY

by hurricanevanessa on February 18, 2011

Pilot pens has brought the personal touch to impersonal e-mail communication by creating an online site that allows you to personalize a font based on your own handwriting and then use that font to compose and send an e-mail.

If It's Hip, It's Here suggested: "You simply go to their website where you register and then print out a blank template. Write your own letters in the spaces in the template and upload it to the site via a scanner, digital camera or webcam. Once the site processes your individual letters of the alphabet, you can finesse each letter by either erasing parts of it or adding to the letter." They also said, "Use a pen, preferably a Pilot as they are promoting their own product." That sounds about fair, don't you think?

You can make sure that each character is neat and pretty.

And, voila!

You are ready to send a super-personalised email (from the Pilot site) of course, in your own handwriting.

That is if you can still actually write. Apparently, one shouldn’t take that for granted these days.
