FYI, it's "Voila", not "Viola".

"Viola" is a musical instrument, "voila" means "behold!"

ceejayoz: No, we actually meant "viola", because in step 3... oh dammit. My bad on the typo, luckily it's just a mock :)

Friggin' awesome. The concept is uber exciting, and the mockup looks great (gotta love the JSM stank all over it).

Can't wait to try it!

Viola means purple (or violet) in Italian. It was a clever play on the French exlamation "voila" while also describing the color of the new Hello World typeface in step 3. Right? Right? ;)

Seriously, this sounds promising. Looking forward to trying it out soon.

Seriously, as a designer I can totally see how the typo snuck in. It's a protoype and something I look forward to abusing in the near future. Please let the typo go people.

designhawg: Nah, no one is seriously upset about it here, everyone's just having a laugh. There's almost always at least one typo in every design mockup I do. :)

Love the concept... not sure how I feel about that right sidebar color, but that's just me. The rest of the site and the idea are baller.

Sounds too good to be true. Let me guess, IE6 converts any text into Comic Sans...

Nice looking mockup. Well-done, Jason! Definitely excited and keeping an eye on TypeKit. I've got million questions I'd love to have answers to before I jump on board with the whole "change the web" mantra, but I'm definitely excited about the potential!

Looks cool. There is a typo though: "Voilà" is the correct spelling ;)

Funny that I got here the same way a lot others did: misspelling of "Voila"! :))
