the ampersand

This is a blog completely on ampersands. I have to credit, leeanne found this first, but i though it belonged on the type blog

from leeanne "i guess there's a blog out there for everyone... this one is solely about ampersands! but i agree, the ampersand is definitely one of the nicest symbols in typography."

... and here's a little fun fact - the shape of the ampersand was derived from the latin word "et"... who knew?
