Preferred fonts

Just a survey: what is your preferred font when they ask you for a readable text on a web page?
I’ve look at the most famous Web pages but I’d like something different: does someone know a recent promising font?

Re: Preferred fonts

I’m using Droid Sans.
I’ll give a look at the others: some most of them are new to me.
Many thanks!
