Lovely Serifs
Think of a slab-serif typeface, and you think of something heavy, solid, somewhat imposing and maybe of limited usefulness. No longer. Hoefler & Frere-Jones have a new slab-serif face, Sentinel, that really breaks the mold: it's respectable, to be sure, but also approachable and (thanks to an italic variant) flexible for setting body text. Sentinel makes for eye-catching headlines, but it also colors beautifully in blocks of copy. We're big fans.

Fifteen Free Fonts
Smashing Magazine identifies 15 free fonts that don't suck.
Every now and again we take a look around, select “fresh” high-quality free fonts
and present them to you in a brief overview. The choice is enormous, so
the time you need to find them is usually the time you should be
investing in your current projects. We search for them and we find
them, so you don’t have to.

Test Your Knowledge of Design History
Friends of HOW Bryony Gomez-Palacio and Armin Vit, newly moved to Austin, TX, are joining us at the HOW Conference as hosts of a new event designed to test how well you paid attention in art history.
They're celebrating the launch of their new book, "Graphic Design Referenced" with Design History and Practice: Mano-a-Mano -- a showdown pitting 16 worthy contestants who'll vie for a free registration to the 2010 HOW Conference. We haven't done anything like this before, but we're pretty certain it'll be great fun.
Go here for more information about the event, and sign up ... if you dare.
