Link Discussion: "Misprinted Type" and "I Love Typography"

The two most recent additions (as of this post) to my links on the sidebar are Misprinted Type and I Love Typography. Here is a small summary of the two links for your consumption..

Misprinted Type is the home of talented artist and type designer Eduardo Recife. You will find some of his work in use on this site, even - the headings for the sidebar were created using the freely available typeface "porcelain". Eduardo has a number of other free typeface releases, as well as a series of very attractive commercial releases. If you have a passion for grunge typography, you owe it to yourself to check out Eduardo's typeface work. Don't forget to browse his portfolio - he has some incredibly creative works on display on his website.

I Love Typography is a blog about type. If you are curious about typeface design, the designers behind the type faces you see, or how type should be used, you owe it to yourself to bookmark, subscribe, digg, and whatever else you do to this blogs of this caliber (hopefully it isn't trolling). I myself have discovered a number of typefaces I will be purchasing as soon as I can afford them from reviews on this site.

That's all. Keep an eye out for more commentary on my links in the future.

Added some linkage.

I launched this blog with the intent of continually modifying and upgrading it, much like Classicwfl.com. Recently I've added my Twitter feed and some links to the sidebar. Go check em' out. I'll continually update the links when I get time (I've got plenty more to share), and also give descriptions on occasion.

Speaking of Classicwfl.com, I'll hopefully have the content layout done in an aesthetic manner (and have part of it rewritten) soon. After that, I'm off to rewrite the NGNCMS, which is the CMS I developed to help me manage my websites. I realize it is bad form to launch a redesign that isn't complete, but the face-lift was rather important at the time, more so than anything else.

Thank you, drive through.
