Which do you prefer for small type on web?
Is Verdana much easier to read?

Something like @fontface should be used so we can finally be free of system fonts forever.

verdana was made for screen view, so I'd say that is best for readability

"You read best what you read most. However, those preferences for typefaces such as Times Roman exist by habit, because those typefaces have been around longest. When those typefaces first came out, they were not what people were used to either. But because they got used, they have become extremely legible."
