Web typography is broken. Here's how we can fix it

There is little concept of the typographic baseline on the web — but maybe we can correct for it. In this post I've explored a number of vertical rhythm systems and writings that have influenced how we set type on the web. It's clear that there's a disparity between the way designers set type and the way browsers render text — so I'd like to introduce our solution — a new open source tool we've named MegaType.
