WhatTheFont!: Font recognition from graphics
WhatTheFont is a lot like one of my favorites, Identifont. This little free service allows you to upload a graphic that contains words, and the system does its best to identify your font.
I tried it with a few logos I’ve developed where I knew what the font was. It hit about 50 percent of the time, but the misses were darn close. I could have easily used one of the fonts they came up with as a close match to the look and feel.
WhatTheFont is a tool brought to you by MyFonts, which looks to be a pretty inexpensive way to purchase interesting fonts. Of course, I still prefer dafont, which is free. I’m funny like that.
OmniDazzle: Add awesome special effects to presentations
OmniDazzle is a free special effects tool for presentations. Lucky Mac users can download the software to add cool ways to highlight screens, words and points during presentations. Oh how I wish we poor PC users had a similar version! I have a presentation this week in San Francisco, and I would love to use this tool to make my favorite tools pop!
