If you know lots about type, sorry! Hope you learn at least *something*. Disclaimer #2 – This is a bit of an unusual talk about typography. I’m not going to talk about the difference between a hyphen and an en-dash or the relative merits of hanging your bullets outside the text-block. That stuff is important, but I’m going to focus on the really important stuff. The basics of typography for internet people @HenryHadlow manofscience.co.uk

the body copy is the important bit. If your site is for photo sharing, the photos are the important part. This stuff goes front and centre. All the other stuff is background. The related links go in the background. Social icons go in the background. The logo goes in the background. Background can mean small or lower contrast, or it can mean further down the page. Or if you really can’t figure out why something’s there, just delete it. Comment it out, see if your boss notices. See if users notice. What content is actually important?
on Bootstrap) the most important thing is to make sure the body text is easy to read – there’s more body text than any thing else, and it’s probably the most important thing on the page. It’s pretty easy to do, because the default styling of HTML and CSS is pretty good. Make the body text easy to read 1
read. There’s one major flaw. The text block is too wide for easy reading. The eye has to travel too far back to the left-hand side and struggles to find the beginning of the next line. Only for a fraction of a second, admittedly, but this adds up and makes reading uncomfortable, especially over long browsing sessions. This is a motherfucking website. And it's fucking perfect. Seriously, what the fuck else do you want? You probably build websites and think your shit is special. You think your 13 megabyte paralax-ative home page is going to get you some fucking Awwward banner you can glue to the top corner of your site. You think your 40-pound jQuery file and 83 polyfills give IE7 a boner because it finally has box-shadow. Wrong, motherfucker. Let me describe your perfect-ass website: Shit's lightweight and loads fast Fits on all your shitty screens Looks the same in all your shitty browsers The motherfucker's accessible to every asshole that visits your site Shit's legible and gets your fucking point across (if you had one instead of just 5mb pics of hipsters drinking coffee) Well guess what, motherfucker: You. Are. Over-designing. Look at this shit. It's a motherfucking website. Why the fuck do you need to animate a fucking trendy-ass banner flag when I hover over that useless piece of shit? You spent hours on it and added 80 kilobytes to your fucking site, and some motherfucker jabbing at it on their iPad with fat sausage fingers will never see that shit. Not to mention blind people will never see that shit, but they don't see any of your shitty shit. You never knew it, but this is your perfect website. Here's why. It's fucking lightweight This entire page weighs less than the gradient-meshed facebook logo on your fucking Wordpress site. Did you seriously load 100kb of jQuery UI just so you could animate the fucking background color of a div? You loaded all 7 fontfaces of a shitty webfont just so you could say "Hi." at 100px height at the beginning of your site? You piece of shit. It's responsive You dumbass. You thought you needed media queries to be responsive, but no. Responsive means that it responds to whatever motherfucking screensize it's viewed on. This site doesn't care if you're on an iMac or a motherfucking Tamagotchi. It fucking works Look at this shit. You can read it ... that is, if you can read, motherfucker. It makes sense. It has motherfucking hierarchy. It's using HTML5 tags so you and your bitch-ass browser know what the fuck's in this fucking site. That's semantics, motherfucker. It has content on the fucking screen. Your site has three bylines and link to your dribbble account, but you spread it over 7 full screens and make me click some bobbing button to show me how cool the jQuery ScrollTo plugin is. Cross-browser compatibility? Load this motherfucker in IE6. I fucking dare you. This is a website. Look at it. You've never seen one before.

If you want to change the browser defaults, 15–25px type is comfortable for reading on screen, with a line- height of 125–145% (typographers call this ‘leading’). This is a motherfucking website.

the browser is typecast. (I don’t work for them or anything like that; I just think it’s a great tool.) It gives you a good long piece of dummy text with all sorts of different headings, quotes etc so you can try out how a bunch of different styles will work together.

the GENEALOGY of MORALS At this point I can no longer avoid giving a first, provisional statement of my own hypothesis concerning the origin of the “bad conscience”: it may sound rather strange and needs to be pondered, lived with, and slept on for a long time. I regard the bad conscience as the serious illness that man was bound to contract under the stress of the most fundamental change he ever experienced—that change which occurred when he found himself finally enclosed within the walls of society and of peace. The situation that faced sea animals when they were compelled to become land animals or perish was the same as that which faced these semi-animals, well adapted to the wilderness, to war, to prowling, to adventure: suddenly all their instincts were disvalued and “suspended.” From now on they had to walk on their feet and “bear themselves” whereas hitherto they had been borne by the water: a dreadful heaviness lay upon them. They felt unable to cope with the simplest undertakings; in this new world they no longer possessed their former guides, their regulating, unconscious and infallible drives: they were reduced to thinking, inferring, reckoning, coordinating cause and effect, these unfortunate creatures; they were reduced to their “consciousness,” their weakest and most fallible organ! I believe there has never been such a feeling of misery on earth, such a leaden discomfort and at the same time the old instincts had not suddenly ceased to make their usual demands. Only it was hardly or rarely possible to humor them: as a rule they had to seek new and, as it were, subterranean gratifications. FRIEDRICH NIETZSCHE

£ PRINT IS DEAD Ok, print isn't dead. It's alive and well. In fact, why not go and buy a book right now? I'd recommend Long live print. really The Shape Of Design. —Robert Bringhurst “A man who would letterspace lower case would steal sheep, Frederic Goudy liked to say.

£ That’s So Meta. Skolar makes a gentlemanly font for body copy. How do you do, madame? May I take your coat? Wait a second, what on is a serif face doing on a blueprint?
