  I didn't know either so I looked it up. Just got done reading about it when you posted.

  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serif

  Basically the serif is the little embellishments on the edges of letters, like at the top and bottom of a capital "I".  Now that I type that....this font is Arial and has no serifs....therefore it's Sans Serif, which I learned means "without serifs".  Interesting!

  This font has serifs.  Here's an "I" with serifs.
  This font is Sans Serif. Here's an "I" without serifs.

      I'm not a fan of web fonts with serifs. Whenever I see a website with serif fonts, it always looks cluttered and uninviting. 


      With books, yes to serifs. Web, no.

        Unless you're wanting to keep the font for style reasons. I.e., "Old World
        Craftsmanship.""

        John,
        It does convey that, in my mind. And, that is exactly what I want it too. A
        lot of these fancy smancy fonts, etc., tend to detract from the message
        intended on a website. I want to have the potential client read my
        information in comfort.<G>
        Thanks for the input. Much appreciated.

        Best,
        Joe
