20 Examples of Great Typography in Web Design

Posted on 02/09/10 in blog, design about ,

I’ve been a huge fan of well done typography in web design lately. Of course it’s difficult to have great typography on the web, due to the web’s limited available fonts. You either have to take a chance that the user won’t have the font, or you’ll have to use some kind of replacement – like an image, cufon or siFR script, which may or may not work on the user’s computer.

But usability aside, there are lots of great type on the web if you know where to look. Lets take a look at some of the best sites I’ve found with a great use of typography.
