    I really liked this presention and it’s something I’m going to think about in the future when designing web applications.

    I have one question though;

    Do you have any thoughts about giving an in-house business web application character? Should it be done to get that user buyin?

    Cheers

    Nice presentation. It is very easy to forget about what your typography is actually saying, especially when you’re in the bowels of your app. Always good to have a reminder to try to look at it objectively.
