That one website that lets you build your own font out of simple shapes

Why it's the pick

You assemble each letter from geometric building blocks in a browser editor, and it outputs a TrueType font ready to download. It needs a free account and the site is funded by ads, but it is the one built specifically for making fonts this way, with a gallery of thousands of fonts you can remix.
