I spent part of the week scouring the net for good typography-related links, and I posted them on my foundry's website. Just check out the right side for a multitude of linky goodness!
From Dieter Steffmann. Which I can only assume is a pseudonym for a group of enslaved font-makers, churning out fonts in some Asian sweatshop.

It's a fledgling site, just off the ground, but could turn into something cool. From the author:
One of the reasons for starting I Love Typography was that I felt there just wasn’t enough being said about the topic. Secondly, and more significantly, I always found it difficult to quickly locate typographic resources. The long-term aim of this blog is to be such a resource, a one-stop-shop for everything about typography, from terminology to new typefaces, from inspirational examples of type to choosing the best font for the job, whether that be on- or off-line.
Fly, robin, fly!
Any of you typography folks going to be in Frankfurt at the end of April? You might want to check out the TypoTechnica conference, April 27-29.
Very cool, pretty damn comprehensive site cataloguing movie title screens. Excellent resource for font usage.
From Smashing Magazine. A couple of nice ones, this month.
