handwriting as a font? for free?

Ever wish you could do all your essays on the computer? Are you annoyed that your handwriting is so inconsistent? Or do you just want to type the way you write?
At yourfonts you can follow a few easy steps to create your own handwriting font, all you need is a printer, a scanner and a good pen. I would show your mine but it would haunt you for the rest of your life. And that's not the website's fault.

Review: Google Earth 5.0

I've had the new version installed on my PC for a while now, and I must say, GE 5 is awesome! Not only can you explore the oceans, the whole archive of satelite and aerial shots (some even dating back to the 40's!) is available and easily accesed through the handy timeline feature. Other updates such as Google Mars are great too, but the history feature is the most prominent.
