Nice linky a friend sent me.
In case you had too much time on your hands, and a computer in front
of you.

Typedrawing

Created by a designer who considers typing words from left to right
"not interesting and sometimes boring," this mesmerizing application
practically compels you to draw with words. Choose the letters, words,
or phrases you want to paint with and trace a pattern. After it's
saved and uploaded, watch the image recreate itself slowly, in the
exact way you sketched it, but composed of your writing instead of
lines. We enjoyed pictures by others made from words such as "groove,"
"hola que tal," "I do adore girls," and "fly." Though many images
circle and swoop abstractly, "Pickle man" formed ! a lumpy guy with a
toothless grin and "Goodbye my friend" took the shape of a steaming
coffee cup. Released in January, the application has had just enough
time to build up a plentiful "best of" list. So go ahead, make a
beautiful typedrawing.
