I'll be referencing that in the future. @Peter Dang, you caught us, I was wondering if anyone would take the time to write that. Yeah we are, but for me this is a recent goal which I set with the writing of the last paragraph in this article. Just wait for the redesign coming around the corner, this site is 3 or so years old. Just stay tuned and you will once again be "Wowed" @ADRYMCS Thanks for the link! Always enjoy looking at typeface combinations and all of them are classics. Taking those basics and applying them to not so well known, but quality designed typefaces is where it gets fun. @Chapolito From the king of creative font use, thanks Jesse.

I saw this linked from Jason Santa Maria's blog, but never followed through with it. TypeKit looks like a solid solution. You notice any downsides of it yet? Has there been any delay or font flicker (when it switches from a normal font to the TypeKit font) on your site loading up if you use a font on large body of copy? Going to be talking to our Dev guys here soon about this. Thanks for the heads up Ryan! I saw this linked from Jason Santa Maria’s blog, but never followed through with it.
