Surveillance Under The Patriot Act - An Infographic
“Vignelli’s 1972 map wasn’t just lovely to look at. Its obsessive clarity turns out to be the perfect basis for digital information. It’s more modern looking than any of the maps that followed it.

Fonts In Use is a brand new website from Nick Sherman, Stephen Coles and Sam Berlow, with Indra Kupferschmid and Marc Oxborrow contributing. It profiles typefaces used all across the graphic design world, and goes into depth on how well the typefaces were used, where you could find the typefaces if you wanted to use them yourself, and, if the typefaces were badly chosen, where you could find suitable alternates. Think of it as a long-form Type Tide (which Stephen also maintains, though I expect to be replaced with this new website). Overall, this is a website you definitely want to keep after!
OMFG.
