Shapecatcher: a fun and possibly useful tool

[Riccardo Sartori]

Recently I accidentally stumbled upon a fun and possibly useful tool called Shapecathcer.

It is a website that allows you to draw any shape and tries to match it with the most similar Unicode character it can find.

It doesn’t always yeld the most accurate results, but I think it could be an worthy addition to the Directory. I am not sure, however, in which category to place it. It is more an app or more an online typograpy resource?

Yeah, online resource sounds acceptable.
