I’ve used it before as main body text. It works nicely if you use a large enough size, like 12pt or 13pt. I mainly use it as my title font because I like the way the serif plays off the sans-serif body text.
Agreed that it can be lovely in headers. I’ve always hated it when people use it for the main text in a tiny size. No one will read your content if they can’t read it! It can be effective if used sparingly, but whenever I see it on a content-oriented site I really just want to change it so I can read it, or just leave the site.
Georgia is one of my favorites. I used it as my main font for my original release of greydove a loooong time ago. And I thought it looked half-decent. Haha. Speaking of which. I’m on break with nothing to do. Maybe I’ll actually finish what I’ve started?

I love it at a larger size (20pt plus), bolded, and italicized. Or just italicized, doesn’t matter. It’s a pretty font [=
