Clarifications:
1. The Typecase is an idea I pitched to QBN two years ago. After a Newstoday redesign in June '05, QBN launched the Typecase and graciously provided the space and the freedom to do whatever I wished with the column.
2. As I am clearly biased toward FontShop, many of my links pointed to FontShop.com. No money changed hands, but obviously these links were of financial benefit to FS. QBN and FS agreed to a time limit for this relationship. That milestone has now passed.
3. I wish Veer all the best in their new position as the Typecase sponsor. I no longer contribute any graphics or reviews to the column.
4. The decision to replace the archived content was QBN's. These past reviews will soon be published at Typographica, along with new reviews:
http://www.typographi.com4. I wish Newstoday the best, and while I won't be around as often as I used to, I think this place is grand and have great respect for QBN. I was treated fairly.
Writing reviews and creating specimens for the Typecase was a joy. Thank you for reading my drivel over the past year.

My participation in the PVN isn't really connected to the Typecase, or any sponsorship. It was just a good time.
Bu really, for font IDs, you really can't do better than Typophile. The answers will come much quicker - and from more sources than just myself.
