'Web Design Manifesto 2012'
Friday, May 18, 2012 at 9:04AM 
Jeffrey Zeldman wrote up a post defending the design of his site, namely the large type he's been using lately. Personally, I'm a fan of the large type and I agree with his thoughts on it:
It’s over the top but not unusable nor, in my opinion, unbeautiful. How can passages set in Georgia and headlines in Franklin be anything but beautiful? I love seeing my words this big. It encourages me to write better and more often.
I also couldn't help but quote this bit about read-it-later services like Instapaper:
[...] it indicates how pathetic much of our web design is when our visitors increasingly turn to third party applications simply to read our sites’ content.
