Really I've been trying to apply web design ideas into learning spaces, and explore whether those design ideas have an effect (the theory is yes) on the learning and the quality of learning. I may just take you up on the e-mail in the near future!

Really appreciate your linking to my post, and really like the blog. I think with serif typefaces it depends on the design. For example, with this cleaner design you have going on here, a sans-serif type is a lot better suited. Experimentation and A/B split testing is always nice, and if you're working in EMs (remember, PXs are evil), things should appear generally the same across all browsers and screens. Hopefully this helps - if you have any questions or anything you can always feel free to e-mail me. :-) Thanks for the trackback on the article.
