Fonts of the best kind

Following up on the bad fonts story I posted some days ago, I found this story on typographica about the best fonts of 2006. It’s their choice though which means their opinions might and probably will differ from your own but then again, everything’s a matter of taste, ain’t it? So go check it out, there are quite a few nice fonts on there and there’s even one that stood out in my eyes named Estilo because of its very simplistic shapes.

And remember, these are fonts that were released during 2006 so if you’re expecting a bunch of Helveticas, you’d be sadly mistaken.

Fonts of the worst kind

I was so wildly navigating the world wide web when I suddenly stumbled upon an old but interesting article about some of the worst fonts ever made at the LMNOP blog. It’s even a little bit funny and as I said, it’s old, so some of you might have read it already.

Nevertheless, it’s interesting and very true. It’s not about the absolute worst fonts ever, it’s more about the worst fonts ever that are still in use all over the place without people realising how bad they actually look. Go and have a look… ehmm… read!
