It's October 22 today. A completely random date in the grand scheme of things (we Dutch lost a big naval battle to the Ming dynasty on October 22 1633), but it also happens to be the release date of the newest version of Windows - Windows 7. Since Windows is still the most popular desktop operating system out there, this is pretty big news.

Dejavu Sans (Bitstream Vera Sans) and Freesans are the way to go. Make sure your web browsers don't allow custom fonts.
However, on Windows, with Cleartype, Verdana and Consolas look the best, IMO (still inferior to the Vera fonts in X, but better looking than w/o subpixel rendering).
