Helvetica is a documentary about the typeface of the same name. As both a film lover and a graphic designer, I’m pretty interested in this film. Check it out if you’re the kind of person who knows the difference between Helvetica and Arial and have an opinion about which is better. I’m not a fan of either and prefer Akzidenz Grotesk.
While I’ve got my typographic nerd hat on, Ban Comic Sans is another fun site. It’s dedicated to the banishment of my least favorite font, Comic Sans. I happen to personally think that comic sans is the worst thing to ever happen to desktop publishing and I wish that people would stop using it and start stoning people who do. Anyway, the site’s pretty funny for few seconds of diversion.
Well, that’s enough type snobbery for one post. Feel free to comment with your favorite typographic sites.
