    Typekit helps Web Designers use more fonts

    November 10th, 2009 - by Jeff Wagner

    Finally!!! Web designers can actually use their font libraries in their design work instead of the all so famous “web safe fonts” we’ve been using for years. Typekit has come out with an online tool that allows web designers and developers to link to a massive library of fonts within the CSS of the site.

    Typekit offers different pricing tiers for their font services depending on how many websites you’re planning on using it for. The pricing is very reasonable for the freedom you’re receiving in your web designs. They do have a free tier for use on one website that allows you to try out two different fonts.

    Typekit was developed by a small San Fran company called Small Batch Inc which consists of designers and developers who worked with and at Google. Click to learn more about the Small Batch Team.

    You can also follow the Typekit team on Twitter at http://twitter.com/typekit

    I can’t wait to start implementing this new service into my website designs, Typekit is really going to help bring web design to a new level.
