[OpenFontLibrary] Anitype!

Anitype asks a simple question: what if letters could move?

For thousands of years, letters have sat static on the page, but
thanks to today's modern devices, they could do a lot more — they
could dance and jump and wriggle their way across the screen. And you
could help decide how they move.

Anitype invites you to animate letters with JavaScript, so we can
begin to see what an animated typeface might look like on the web.

Caution, do not visit this page if you are epileptic or prone to
seizures... or even headaches.

It'd probably help if the page had a list of different easing types.

The first page convinces me I don't want this in anything I have to
read :-) but it's also fun.
