Designer-Font Wankery

I apologize for the design wankery going on in the previous posts, but it’s gonna continue for at least one more. Regular programming shall resume shortly, I promise you (working on a Rails-related post already, actually). But, in the mean time…

I’m a typographile. It’s definitely a sickness… I have more fonts than I can deal with. I also hate Suitcase, because it’s one of those things that everyone suggests but nobody actually likes. And for some reason nobody seems to admit this, either. The whole state of font management has been a sorry one, and quite unpleasant, til now.

Linotype’s hit a home run by offering a free, iTunes-like approach to font management and even font sales. And, instead of being half-assed and expensive, it’s great and free.

Linotype FontExplorer X is like nerdvana for us font addicts. I know I sound like a total shill, but believe me, no money or goods exchanged hands. I was not bribed with even a single typeface (although, should free typefaces somehow appear in my inbox, I would not complain). It’s just that enabling never felt so good.

Oh, and it’s not dog slow. If you’re a fellow fontaholic, it’ll leave you positively gibbering with delight, I promise.
