Eventually, I learned my crescents and my box ends from my pipe wrenches and my dykes. Now days, my tool belt is more virtual, and the laundry list of choices I have for any given task grows day by day. Photoshop or Gimp, Dreamweaver or NoteTab… I like to think that I’m doing my dad proud and making the right choices. The one area I could stand some improvement is search engines. I optimize for them, charge clients to document them, pull logs to find out how others use them. But more often than not, when faced with a search dilemma, I Google it. Firefox is partly to blame, the prefetching and handy search box are all too seductive. But I hope with this list that will change. I’m sorry Dad, it won’t happen again.

Fontifier bills itself as “Your own handwriting on your computer!” Rest assured, I’ll have mine soon.
