If you want to see some further SSi "history" you can try the following link: 

http://www.fontzone.com/zine/search/keyword/SSI <http://www.fontzone.com/zine/search/keyword/SSI> 

Which will give you a hit list of the SSi articles on the site, in reverse chronological order. You can see approximately what happened and when from the headline and synopsis. 

The "volume" at fontzone varies according to what's going on - at the moment there are at least 500 articles at the site, which run from 200 words or so up to multi-part pieces of several thousand words. Over the past month we've added about 20 articles and half a dozen events. I'd say that was fairly typical. 

The quality... plenty of info, not so much prose. If you want to catch a bit of it you can read through the previews section: 

	http://www.fontzone.com/zine/features/fz33982.arch/ <http://www.fontzone.com/zine/features/fz33982.arch/> 

If you want to "lurk" for a while you can join our mailing list, by which you'll receive site updates every couple of weeks: 

	http://www.fontzone.com/zine/announce_list.html <http://www.fontzone.com/zine/announce_list.html> 

You can also use the WebFeed for free, which is a general mix of type and graphics news links: 

	http://www.fontzone.com/zine/WebFeed/ <http://www.fontzone.com/zine/WebFeed/> 

To get a general feel of Fontzone just try the search function or just browse through the section listings, anything marked with a folder icon you can browse as well as anything in the nav bars. 

I'd also second Thomas's endorsement of John Berry's columns, which are excellent value for money.:-) No, really, John is a much better writer than any of us hacks at Fontzone.
