Last week I bumped into this website and I immediately fell in love with it. If you often find yourself searching for website design inspirations, this website is something you should immediately add to your bookmarks! The whole idea is to categorise existing (awesome) websites by the font families that they use. It's just a whole new dimension that I hadn't considered that much before.
