Answer 1

Segoe UI requires a license if you want to include it as a web font for commercial use in a site. Consider a font such as Open Sans as a free alternative or purchase the license. http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fonts/open-sans

Answer 2

There is now an open-source variant of Segoe UI, called Selawik. You can get it from here. It isn't available yet as a web font, but I think it's only a matter of time before it gets uploaded to a CDN.
