The October 2009 Usability News Newsletter has a great article highlighting a recent typography study on Web font faces.
Know Your Typefaces! Semantic Differential Presentation of 40 Onscreen Typefaces
This article presents results from a study investigating the personality of typefaces. Participants were asked to rate 40 typefaces (from serif, sans serif, display, and handwriting classes) using semantic differential scales. Responses are shown by typeface class and individual typeface using scaled scores. These results are helpful to practitioners when deciding which typeface to use for online text.”
Rogie King tweeted this awesome resource earlier today. I am a huge Coda fan. HTML/CSS/JavaScript/PHP IDE, Terminal, FTP, Site Management, and resources in one great package. One of the cooler features is it’s one-click code clips. I’ve always wanted more, but never bother to create them.
Enter Coda Clips. Find and install (with a click!) a bunch of really handy code clips! should make development pretty speedy.
Doug Hill released 115 background tiles for free use. There are some really good ones. I prefer minimalist, small tiling patterns, he has a few of those, but most are fairly elaborate.
So I must have missed this one, but age old Web design resource WebMonkey.com has relaunched. It is completely revamped and is gorgeous.
One of the coolest things I’ve seen so far is that all of the tutorials are managed by MediaWiki and are completely globally editable! No more out-datedness!
Nice work. Hoping to see some great content here soon.
In addition to all the GTD links, there were some excellent Web design links. Here are some of the best (IMO)
