Talking about redesigns, A List Apart itself could use a little font size optimization, what do you think? - Philipp Lenssen

I personally don't mind small fonts, although I wouldn't use them myself and would consider them to be bad design. Zooming in modern browsers is much better than the old font size options used to be but I can imagine that it could get quite annoying if you had to keep changing your zoom for different sites. - Tony Ruscoe
