I was on StumbleUpon recently and came accross this - The Periodic Table of Typefaces. Besides being amazing and helpful, the maker of this tried putting similar typefaces in the same group/period, sort of like the elements are grouped in the actual periodic table! Sans-Serif fonts are in the first two groups/periods. As you continue looking down, the typefaces become fancier and the script fonts are introduced. I thought the whole concept was very clever!
The creator tried to display the top 100 fonts used by designers. He included the creator of the typeface as well as the year it was made. It's interesting to see similar typefaces together thought they were made at completely different times.
Anyway, just thought this was a good find. I highly encourage everyone to check it out. Click here for the website!
