Try CloudFlare and SteadyOffload and google for common website performance and speed enhancements. (firebug comes to mind - measure, optimize, measure, optimize, measure...)

If you are using custom fonts try hosting fonts in a place other than your server, such as on webfonts.fonts.com or fontdeck or typefront. They likely have CDN already so loading fonts could become faster. If using jquery (who isnt) load the files from code.google.com. The servers are likely replicated and cached locally around the world for faster access.
