Google Web Fonts- set of free fonts to use on any website

Here’s a nice alternative to TypeKit. It’s free no matter how many visitor you have on your website, you can use an API or just download the fonts and use @font-face to embed them on your website. You can also download and install them in your OS and use in graphic editors to make nice headers or whatever you need!
What I am talking about? Google Web Fonts.
All fonts are open source, so you are free to do almost anything with them. There are fonts for Latin, Cyrillic, Khmer and Greek alphabets.
And here is an example on how to use a font from Google Web Fonts directory:

<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Cabin+Sketch:bold' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>
<div style="font-family: Cabin Sketch">Hello World</div>

And the result in your browser:

Hello World
