Don't know much about popularity of gwf, but you can download the fonts and load them locally from your server/site instead of contacting google servers as ryan said. Read faq: http://code.google.com/apis/webfonts/faq.html#Download_Fonts If your interest is to use a system serif font instead say metrophobic, then is a matter of modifying the css, shouldn't be much of a hassle I think =/ On Thu, May 12, 2011 at 3:02 PM, Ryan Dewhurst <ryandewhurst () gmail com>wrote:
Hi, The first I had heard of them is when I used the following Wordpress theme: http://wordpress.org/extend/themes/liquorice I do know that you can also download the fonts to use rather than having to link to them within the page. Apart from that, I don't know much about them.

It seems that every webmaster can embed Google Web Fonts in his site. Which means when I visit example.com the fonts will be loaded from Google servers. Howto block Google Web Fonts and replace by local system fonts? Howto see which sites are using Google Web Fonts already? Are Google Web Fonts popular? Desc from Google -------------------------- Google Web Fonts lets you browse all the fonts available via the Google Web Fonts API. All fonts in the directory are available for use on your website under an open source license and are served by Google servers. cheers Sven _______________________________________________ Pauldotcom mailing list Pauldotcom () mail pauldotcom com http://mail.pauldotcom.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pauldotcom Main Web Site: http://pauldotcom.com_______________________________________________ Pauldotcom mailing list Pauldotcom () mail pauldotcom com http://mail.pauldotcom.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pauldotcom Main Web Site: http://pauldotcom.com
