When browsing a website, we sometimes see a beautiful font, wonder what it is, check the source + CSS file (or Firebug) and get the answer. Sounds familiar?

WhatFont is a bookmarklet that eases this process so much. Once pressed, it displays the font used for any text hovered.

WhatFont

If you click on the text, it drops a pin with the details of the font including style, weight, line-height and font-size. These pins are not removed after each click, so, multiple items can be easily compared.

Also, WhatFont detects fonts served from services like Typekit or Google Font API and displays this info.

Simply, a must-use for every web designer.
