My name is Cédric Bozzi, I make apps and websites, and this is my tech blog — you’ll find news commentary here, from a very opinionated Mac-head.

Il y a une version française ici, but most of this blog’s contents are extracted from my Twitter feed, and hence only available in one language (which varies randomly).

WhatTheFont (iPhone)

With WhatTheFont for iPhone, you can take a picture using the iPhone’s camera, and use the WhatTheFont to identify the font in the image. No more guessing — or even waiting until you get back to the computer.

If this worked, it would be positively awesome. Sadly, it doesn’t. At all. And if it doesn’t work on my iPhone with a Clarifi macro lens, you really needn’t bother downloading it, even for free.

Not to mention that it’s infuriatingly slow right now, as everyone’s testing it and overloading the server. (I assume. Unless it’s inherently sluggish.)
