My friend Ian is living on display for three months in the upscale, green Portland building Cyan PDX.

"Cyan PDX are well-designed urban apartments with small carbon footprints for real people."
This is an interesting way to showcase the experience of living there. We look forward to the promised videos.

An inspired tour for those who love typography is just one of the many activities offered during this year's TypeCon, held at the Parsons School of Design in New York City. The Times has the story (free subscription required). The organizers of the conference? The Society of Typographic Aficionados. You're one, aren't you?
