We've watched with interest over the past couple of years the effect that ever increasing screens and resolutions have had on sites and web designers alike. For several years now we have been conforming to what web designers call the 960 Grid System (gs). And what a great system it is too. The 960 gs gives us designers flexibility and helps to quickly prototype the layout in any number of columns: 9/3, 3/3/3, 4/4/4/4, 10/2 col and so on. It is no doubt the most popular recent grid system and is used on many sites and design templates.

As designers, developers, programmers or the every day joe we've all come across this common problem. You've been browsing through your favorite websites and found one that uses a font you love and must have there and then... but how do you go about finding out what that font is called?
One option would be to email the site and just ask for the name of the font and where to get it. But what are the chances of that and if there was one this can take some time. Instead we've pulled together a list of FREE online tools to help out in that search for the "font" of your life.
