Web typography at its best

A really nice example of how a site can look stunning despite being built without the use of images and with only a single font (and Times New Roman at that!): Seed Conference. Just amazing.

   Yes, very nice use of typography there.

   I think someone should mention to them however, that they could take advantage of generated content for those asterisks before and after some of the titles though :)

   While it looks nice on the outside. The markup isn’t as pretty. There’s no semantics. The headlines are style paragraphs etc. Would be a much better example if the underlying markup was done properly.

   I agree with Thomas. Also, there is in fact one image at the bottom.
