Flat Icons & Icon Fonts

There are many such roundups. This one is mine.

Icon Fonts...

are awesome. They typically come with standard vectors as well if you prefer working with them that way, but these icon projects go the extra mile in offering an @font-face compatible font for web use.

Pictos

Pictos is in a class of its own in that it offers Pictos Server, a service which allows you to build your own font set from it's library of icons and will host/serve it to you. This allows for very small (quick loading) font files and a nice UI for updating your current sets.
