Testing Google Fonts, please look at this page
 
Tell me if the text at the top of the page looks like the image under it.

The text on the image is a little bit bolder, otherwise no differences ;)

Like those two guys said.

On the Mac versions those are nearly identical in Firefox, and page loaded quickly. Chrome loaded it slower and the bottom was a tiny bit bolder. Safari loaded it very slowly and the bottom was just a little bolder too.

Thanks all.

Glad to see that there is a way to use some fancy fonts on stuff although not thrilled that each page has to load them from Google.

For anyone interested

with my inprivate on I see
Making the Web Beautiful!
but cursive in the picture

with inprivate off I see
Cursive with both but copying and pasting I see
Making the Web Beautiful! Again with a standard font

That is in ie8...At some point I'll have to upgrade my browser but I do a lot of tabbed browsing and I absolutely hate the tabs stuck on the top of the page...make no sense to have to keep moving my mouse upto the top to switch tabs

Had to Google inprivate to see what it was.

I'm guessing that it stops anything from loading off of other domains and the font loads from Google.

Yup it blocks 3rd party cookies, iframes, movies auto playing in flash...etc
basically all off site content from loading...including several java scripts and flash ads

I love it, and it is just one click and a refresh to see all the garbage that is actually loading so I really do not miss anything I need

Not sure if a lot of people use inprivate or not and also not sure how much I even want to use Google fonts.

Google does allow their fonts to be put on your own server which would prevent inprivate from not loading them.
