Hey guys, it is Tuesday yet again and you probably feel like this day is never going to end, but yet why would you want it too? Today is the day where we really get to praise typography and study it's brilliance.  What is Typography you ask? Well I am here to answer that:
[b]ty·pog·ra·phy-  1. The art or process of setting and arranging types and printing from them.
    2.The style and appearance of printed matter.

There is so many brilliant typography pieces out there that is hard to choose one to be liked the most but that is where the fun comes in. The technical and visual beauty of these pieces entice you and make you want to be skilled enough to try your hand at it. The best thing about it though is that you don't have to be incredibly skilled to have fun trying! Practice makes perfect guys so here are some inspirational and awe-inspiring pieces that I ran across.

I've seen that Steve Jobs piece numerous times, and each time I am awed by the detail.

That is exactly how I felt.
