  • Typography site of the day:
    Today’s topics are typography, and more on design. Reading is to look back at the typography pages of HTML & CSS Chapter 12.
      More design sites with an emphasis on type:
    • Some definitions (really, a vendor) at the Font Bureau.
    • Microsoft’s gallery of their free fonts that most users have, shown in dummy layouts.
    • Here’s a quite complete interactive tutorial on type anatomy, measurement, and classification from Counterspace
    • An explanation of legibility (type design) as opposed to readability (type use) as we defined it.
    • Ten ways to make your type more readable on the Web from About.com
    • A good free font resource that also supports @font-face: Font Squirrel
    • More print-based but an important blog: I Love Typography
