fancy microsites for non-Latin typefaces?

Hi TD, Looking for examples of interesting/ well-designed micro / promotional sites for typefaces or web fonts that at least include scripts beyond Latin.
For example: http://ernestinefont.com/features/

I don't know if that's the kind of micro website you're looking for, but Inknut Antiqua has a nice minimalist page http://clauseggers.github.io/

Ow thanks for looking at that Amy. I should really retinafy those images. (Sorry, don’t have anything to add to the list off the top of my head.)

Yes, Claus' is nice!
Many of the designers that I've commissioned libre fonts from are creating such microsite, here are a few off the top of my head:
Girish Dalvi put together http://www.idc.iitb.ac.in/~girish/demo for Ek Mukta (latin + devanagari)
Khaled Hosny has had http://amirifont.org up for a long time (arabic, with a 3rd party latin included)
Cadson Demak have done the best job so far, with http://cadsondemak.github.io as an index for the 12 latin + thai fonts developed this year.
Zepnep's http://theruqahproject.com and Aoife's http://aoifemooney.github.io/makingbiorhyme/ are intended to be larger than micro-sites, blogging the design process, although both projects are still in the middle of their initial phase so the sites are a bit empty at the moment
