The Font of all Free Beer?

Normally, I'm more of a free as in freedom man, but I have to say this collection of free as in beer fonts is impressive (all 9,800 of them), so I'll make an exception this time. (Via C|net.)

Hi!

I enjoy reading your blog. The link from the word "collection" is broken. (just says "http://"). It is reachable from the word "C|Net" but is still an annoyance.

That put aside, I think that in regards to fonts, they don't have to be completely free as in speech to be usable. This is similar to the fact that most of the Creative Commons licences are not free-as-in-freedom and yet they can greatly increase the public value of the work.

Thanks for the note about the link - fixed, now.

I'm sure you're right about the fonts, it's just I have this guilty fear that Richard Stallman might get to hear about it....
