So i got my Typekit invitation a week or so ago but don't give it such a good use. So i was reading my feeds and saw this post over at Inspect Element and this inspired me to do the same thing. Lets start of with a quick definition of what Typekit is.
Typekit allows you to embed select fonts using javascript and @font-face. It even works in IE6+! They have a great selection of fonts to choose from and is very simple to implement. After selecting a font you would like to use, all you need to do is include the relevant code to load in the javascript and you will be able to use the font just as if you were using @font-face regularly.
How to get invited
Its simple leave a comment saying what you would use Typekit for.
I will send out the invitations tomorrow so make sure that you comment with a valid email.
Update: All invites have been givin out.

Hi, I’ve launch my personal portfolio/blog yesterday, and I’m using Cufon for my heading, but for the copy/paste it’s not so cool, so I would like to try typekit that I discovered today in a screencast by Jeffrey Way on Nettuts.

I’m currently building my personal web blog and portfolio and I would like to try typekit. I’d also probably use it in a couple of my clients sites.

Hey man,
I would, but I already got an invite from Typekit :)
So, is this theme designed/coded by you? Coz if it is, I never knew you could code WP!

@Keith yeah this is all my work! i’ve been on wp for a while now, getting better and better with the practice. Your site look cool also :D
@Eddie Lee and @Cody Robertson your invites have been sent!

well i dont think my work is good enough to be on TF hahaha but im working on something atm that if i manage to get everything i want in it will be up there.

Dude, this theme on your blog would sell like crazy on TF. There is a huge market for “community” themes at the moment. This is a design I made, still working on it, but I’m trying to get my themes on TF too :P.
