25+ Sites That Use Typography As The Only Design Element

Check out this list of sites that use Type as their main design elements. Some interesting links, although they definitely don’t all use only Type as design elements (I see quite a bit of graphical elements that are part of these interfaces).

Type Tweets is a cool discovery from this set of links. Looks like it provides a list of current typographic discussions happening across Twitter.

Amazon Kindle

I got my Kindle yesterday and I’ve started reading my first book on it (Michael Crichton’s Airframe). So far I’m really impressed with the display, it’s higher resolution than I expected, and actually looks a lot like paper.

Amazon’s Kindle store with their Whispernet network service (essentially Sprint EVDO) works really well too. I was able to first download a preview of the book (a couple chapters), which showed up in my home screen immediately. After finishing the preview I purchased the book, there was almost no delay there either, and the book was immediately available on my home screen.

Pretty awesome! Check out more info here and here.
