Predicting trends of any kind is a bit of a misguided move because, if you're in the spotlight, you will inevitably influence the trends you were merely trying to observe. With that in mind, I still quite enjoyed the FontShop Type Trends 2010 blog post. It runs through a number of typefaces that they foresee becoming more prevalent in the coming 365 days.

Personally, I hope I can break my undying leniency on slab serifs this year but if I don't.. I've got some great new choices to rely on.
