I have tried to make the process of making icon fonts a little easier. I’ve made a font generator, which presents you with a large number of icons (currently offering 310 icons). You can easily search and select the ones you want and then assign them to letters to generate your font.

A demo page with a few samples: http://goo.gl/dHUpa
Using data attributes, as mentioned in this article, is smart. Doesn’t IE8 have any problem with content:attr() though? Up to now, I’ve been using class names, for each icon.
