Google just launched the Google Font Directory (beta, of course) and the Google Font API which provides web-designers with an easy way to extend the font options that tend to limit many websites. Using the service is pretty simple: go to the font directory, find the font you want to use, and follow the simple instructions under the “Get the code” tab.
The font list seems a bit limited at the moment, but to experiment with the feature, I’ve changed all of the post headings at this site to be displayed in IM Fell English SC and the body text to Molengo. It would be great to see fonts like Gentium and Linux Libertine on there too.
