Hey guys,

I found this article (http://typedia.com/blog/post/cure-for-the-common-webfont-part-2-alternatives-to-georgia/) which lists some useful alternative fonts to Gerogia. Some of them are quite nice for headings, I like "Le Monde Journal".

Also there are some serif fonts that don't look too bad as body text either, like "Fedra Serif Screen" and "FF Tisa".

Although I like Georgia very much, I think it's got to that point (from the view of a designer) where I'm sick of seeing it in my own designs! Not sure what you all think about that?

:)

Ooh I really like FF Tisa .. thanks for posting this Pui! I love Georgia but I would like to have other serif options that are appropriate for body copy :)

My favourite serif font is Rawlinson 2.0 (http://www.terminaldesign.com/Fonts/#/Rawlinson2) by Terminal Design but it's not yet available as an embedded font. When it is, I'll be using it.
