@chester Georgia is most likely the best 'free' typeface. I'm personally not willing to sacrifice quality over a price tag which you receive with most Google Web Fonts. If I had no other choice I would go with Droid Sans and Droid Serif. But I highly recommend using Webtype.
Hi again.
What are some good FREE fonts for body text?
And which is better, use the Google Web Font API or download the Fonts and use @font-face?
Thanks.
Hi @chester
There's no point re-inventing the wheel, so check out this thread on here. Obviously you can just ignore the TypeKit comparison.

@Watson90, @chrisburton.. thanks guys. I'll check those fonts but first I'll review on 'typefaces' because honestly I don't know what a 'Webtype' is.
@chester when others speak of "fonts", most people are actually referring to the design, not the software.
fonts = software (e.g. mp4) typefaces = the design/appearance
Webtype is a high quality webfont distributor. http://webtype.com
