Whether it’s an email, whether it’s a blog post or any other printed document, or a web page, the type of font you use tells a lot about the type of person you really are. Yes, to begin with, anyone who makes a devoted effort to change the font instead of clinging on to the default is showing his attention for detail.

Recently I sent a mind-twisting query to all my colleagues at Miracle Studios asking them what’s their favorite font is or was and why. And the responses are still pouring in to my inbox. I am just wondering how passionate are all of these “Tech-Geeks” in answering this query. Where as I am collecting the answers from all quarters, and trying to post them here…….
