I can't claim the credit, though — I saw it in this message from Seqram (Mark Shoulson).

I imagine you're especially familiar with ɟ, since that sound occurs in Hungarian.

That'll depend on your computer, what fonts you have installed, and which browser you use.

Here, have a screenshot of what it looks like on my PC: ¿ʇı̣ əsnqɐ ʇ,uɐɔ noʎ ɟı̣ əpoɔı̣un sı̣ pooɓ ʇɐɥʍ

Basically, it uses letters that are 180° rotations of other letters to spell a sentence upside-down -- some letters are in the Latin alphabet (e.g. "u" and "n" are rotations, as are "p" and "d") while others are used by linguists to represent certain sounds, and were therefore included in Unicode.

Livejournal can take it. Most people at digg don't have livejournal accounts so there might not be *that* many comments.

Strange! Especially since this is such an old entry, and it's not even original! I'm sure I got it from somewhere else.

But still funny, I suppose!

You're (or rather, the tool that references you) on reddit, too. #2 at the time of this posting.

Ah! I was wondering where I was, since I didn't see a link to my page, and didn't click through to the tool. Thanks.
