Note for future: Cufon > sIFR

When working on the Doritos project, I used a text to flash replacement for using custom fonts called sIFR (scalable Inman Flash Replacement). This worked well, but was a CHORE to set up and get working, and depends on Flash.

Recently in the irc.freenode.net##javascript channel someone mentioned Cufon.

I'll have to make a note to use this in future. It uses VML for IE and Canvas for all the real browsers.

Excellent find.
