Cufon is awesome. You generate a font, then attach it and the Cufon.js to your site.
What you get is instant client-side text replacing. If done properly you won't even see the text popping to your Cufon font. Even better, it supports all but the oldest browsers (even works on IE6!)
I prefer Cufon over other flash based alternatives because (and obviously) we're not relying on a plugin to be installed...just javascript enabled.
Tips:
1) use Cufon.now() at the bottom of the page above your .js scripts (like google analytics)
2) Older browsers w/out a css selector engine need the jQuery library loaded before cufon
