Does it count as new literacies if fonts come to life and interact with each other?
And another thing … when did we ever before word processors, know the names of more than twenty fonts? Or of any fonts? And when did the word ‘font’ become so commonplace? Huh? Hh? Not so stupid now, are we? We know new stuff.

  1. I love this!
    Fonts and Superheroes, :-)
    And I agree, knowledge of fonts definitely is part of new literacies.
