			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A friend of mine, <a href="http://www.gillesmaes.com/" target="_blank">Gilles Maes</a>, is writing a thesis on readability, both online and offline. To make his research just a tad easier, he has set up a simple web survey. It speaks for itself that once he has received enough data, he will publish these results.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://www.rdlt.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/typography.jpg" alt="A crappy image featuring the word “Typography”" /></p>
<p>The idea is that you play around with the font family and size until you have found your favourite combination. Once you&#8217;ve done that, simply fill in the tiny little form saying why you prefer it. The reason why he is asking for your Age and Web experience is to have a better understanding of how certain audiences experience fonts.</p>
<p>Choosing your flavour is very simple. On the left side, you can click on each different sub menu: Mono space, Sans Serif, Serif &amp; Font Size. When you click that item, a sub menu will fade in, giving you several options. By clicking any of those options, the text above the form will change.</p>
<p>Personally, I&#8217;m not really a fan of a certain font. I always pick the font that matches the subject. E.g. a &#8220;grunge&#8221; themed website should have a Serif font.</p>
