Android Fonts Elsewhere

I’d like this blog to look Androidesque, and not only on an Android. One way of getting the Androidesque aspect is using Droid fonts on all platforms. One step toward that is using TypeKit.

TypeKit is a web service that allows you access to hundreds of fonts for your websites. The Droid fonts are available, even in the Trial/free plan.

I’ve started using Typekit to put Droid fonts on this blog, starting with Droid Serif for post content. That doesn’t guarantee that you’ll see this in Droid Serif, though. See the note on browser support.

My very early impression of Typekit is that it’s at the stage meriting labels such as: early; very promising; currently frustrating. As an illustration of the last label, I tried to make a support suggestion, but couldn’t because I wasn’t signed in. WTF: I was signed in to Typekit. That’s all it should take. I shouldn’t have to use some other id/password combination.
