Icon Fonts are Awesome
Why arent people using SVG for this sort of thing?  Isnt that HTML5's vector graphics format?I supose if you're using icons w/ the express purpose of using them with in-line text, then this would be Ideal... but just seems like a weird hack, when there is SVG available...The author of this website claims to simply be ignorant of SVG at the bottom?  whats up with that?Why is using a font "hack" better than using the intended container for vector graphics?I guess web design has always sorta been about pushing the bounderies of browser quirks, but I kinda thought we were moving away from that.  You would think the intended use of vector graphics would be designed to be just as good if not better than using a font to do the same thing.
