(1) Museo: it started with the letter "u"... a fun sans serif that comes in five weights, three of which are free. It was voted one of iLT's (I Love Typography blog's) top 10 fonts of '08.
(3) Lavoisier: a new open source font.
(4) MEgalopolis Extra: from Frenchman Jack Usine, voted one of the top 10 fonts of 2008 by iLT (I Love Typography blog). "Beautiful, big, and strong... abracadabratesque (this adjective should be used more often)... extraordinary, prestigious, dazzling, phenomenal, colossal, incredible... and, with that, modest."
(2) Badaboom: a new "fun font" discovery, sort of a cousin of AHJ Keller, which we've been using on the awesome Senior Portraits flyers. Urbanfonts.com has a lot of free fonts, though some of them are silly/over-the-top.
P.S. It's not free, but I'm really digging Hannah. It reminds me that Amy needs to make a font out of her handwriting!
P.P.S. Want more? Check out the Top 10 Fonts of '08. It's really of list of top 10 lists = soooo many fonts to discover.P.P.P.S. A simple Google search turns up lots of free font websites. I tend to prefer dafont.com but simplythebest.net and urbanfonts.com are still better organized than most. Have a favorite font site/open source font? Spread the love!
