Most of the content is rendered using the open source ‘PT Sans’ font by ParaType, available through Google Fonts. The page headline, footer content and some other random bits use the open source ‘Mountains of Christmas’ font by Tart Workshop, also available through Google Fonts.
Where I need to embed source code in a post or page I’m using the ‘SyntaxHighlighter Evolved‘ plug-in for WordPress, based on a nifty JavaScript package by Alex Gorbatchev that can also be used separately in web applications and content beyond WordPress.
Oh, and all this is running on DreamHost, a web hosting provider that came highly recommended by friends. I’m still learning my way around their services but I’ve been very impressed so far thanks to the open environment and excellent compatibility with the tools necessary to create content and manage my site.
