- timb 17y agoOn that site I can see a sort-of flash of unstyled content as the font loads, but that doesn't seem to happen on Typekit's own pages.
- kevinholesh 17y agoIt depends on how fast Typekit's server responds. I'm sure it is extra slow today. I did some unofficial benchmarks on the service while it was still in beta: http://iloveusability.com/usability-review/typekit/ http://iloveusability.com/usability-review/typekit/ It'll be interesting to see how well their servers perform under a heavier load.
- ErrantX 17y agoThat's put me off a lot; I'd expect them to be using a service that is very stable to scale now they have launched. The fact their own site is intermittent today is worrying.

- hellotoby 17y agoUnfortunately, for me anyway, the text on that page is really difficult to read and seems somewhat blurry. Perhaps not the best example...
