For those new to the scene, Raphael is a vector graphics API that works across almost all major browsers. Except Android's webkit for now, irksome.

Raphael has a simple, jQuery-like API. It is compatible with SVG and VML, which means pretty great IE6-8 support. The main alternative is SVG Web, which uses Flash 10 to target IE6-8/Android and native SVG for everything else.

Android team, please support SVG. Don't make us optimize our iOS experiences to spite you.
