Typography surrounds us—yet so many people ignore it. By paying better attention to type, how can we better appreciate its influence on us and how we communicate? Listen to ‘20. What’s Your Type’ on Lounge Ruminator. 🎙

@AlanRalph Thanks for sharing your thoughts, Alan! It's good to hear from someone who has more design experience; I have some from my roles in communications but it has always been more of a secondary thing. I can produce stuff but I've never had 'expertise', to put it bluntly.

I agree that people should be less rabid towards Comic Sans; it has its place and achieves what it sets out to do, which is just to be fun and a bit irregular. I just dislike it when you can tell that people used it in a spot where it really isn't suitable.

Oh yes... Papyrus and Algerian... ergh...

I couldn't agree more with what you said about using Reader; I love to remove visual clutter.

If I were to press you, which I will, could you name an absolute favourite typeface (or at least the one that you use the most)?
