I have discovered a nice little light weight program I am using
to generate some fax documents called tgif. Hylafax had this program 
in their FAQ's when I was researching how in the dickens to create a custom
coversheet, and I decided I would like to use it a bit more.

The problem is, the program only has 1/2 a dozen fonts available.
I think I need to learn more about fonts & Linux in general therefore:
Can anyone recommend a Linux Fonts for Dummies web site. 
Just something to give me a good overview on how they work
(and maybe why everyone always complains about them).

I could dig around on Google, but I would rather use this list as a filter
to the numerous hits Google returned.
