TypeTester is one of my favs, too… in the time that I’ve been using it, the lists of fonts has changed quite a bit, though. Must be because the OS’s have been changing.

I recently came across this site, too: Thinking With Type. Not exactly a tool, but it’s a typeface-lover’s dream.

Typography is a lost art. There actually used to be a profession known as “typographer”.

That artform is all but gone, sad to say. Great artists and designers like Herb Libalin, Tom Carnase, and Milton Glaser.
