Question

Good font for blogs?

What would you guys recomment as a non-traditional font for a blog? I'd like something that's different from the rest and catches the eye, but I still want it to be easy to read.


Right now I think I'm using a version of Arial with a dark blue color (it looks black).


Thanks for all ideas!

    Serif fonts have more warmth and character to them than fonts like arial, helvetica, verdana which seem to best suit the design fields and e-commerce sites.  For blogs where there is a lot of text, serif fonts can be better to read.  I like to use this group, Palatino Linotype,Book Antiqua,Palatino,serif  - We have it in use here: http://www.teufellandscape.com/blog

    adem,

    The first one that came to mind was Century Schoolbook, then the more classical ones (New Baskerville, Garamond, Georgia), and more boringly some different sans serifs such as Verdana and Myriad.
