• In the constant war for innovation and progress that is the internet, no one attends the funerals. Luckily, nostalgia finds some breathing space every once in a while, and here's a list of HTML tags nobody wants to use anymore.

Design of the week

• Mozilla is undergoing a rebranding process, and we're excited to see JKR's work over at It's Nice That.
• Discussing how this has nothing to do with Greece, we've still found lots of joy gaugeing the heck out of the new Grilli Type typeface GT Pantheon. Their work is always worth a minute of your time.
