Web typography…

I’ve always found typography in my site designs to be a sticking point, inconsistencies accross large sites, lack of flow and general hacks to make stuff look right for a quick fix are generally my faults when it comes to site design

I recently listened to a podcast of a typography presentation at the South by Southwest 2007 interactive festival called ‘web typography sucks’. I have to say I learned a lot from it.

Also, www.webtypography.net is a new resource which is being expanded is a great place to swot up on web typography issues, and this handy tool is a great way to test fonts, colours and sizing.
