Has anyone else noticed that the volume control for BBC's iPlayer goes all the way up to 11?

One of the disadvantages of having typefaces available for sale is that I have been known, on more anorak-esque days, to wander into Borders to peruse the covers of books, magazines and CDs on the off-chance of catching sight of one of my creations. It's somewhat pathetic, but it's true and I've inevitably come away disappointed. However it turns out that Exuberance Primary has taken on a life of its own in a different guise, leading me to explore the world of scrapbooking in the process.

A company called QuicKutz have turned Exuberance Primary Bold into a complete alphabet of metal dies called "Merry" as part of their Merry and Bright Holiday Gift Set. As far as I can ascertain - and I'm not an expert - the set of Merry dies can be used to cut lettering out of card using some sort of machine, to be used on greetings cards and the like. Forgive my ignorance, and from my description you may think I'm bemused, but I'm actually very flattered that Exuberance Primary has been chosen to be released in this way and, if you're into card making, I'd be delighted to see any examples of your work using Merry.

I would buy a set but it's £99.

Today I finally spotted a typeface of mine in the wild! Parentsandcarers.com, designed by Mark Boulton, is a site aimed at carers of disabled people and makes use of Exuberance Primary throughout. This is very exciting news - maybe I should get out more.

UPDATE: Mark informs me that the typeface was also used in all the conference material for @media this year.
