Done

Updated: Added Open Sans.

After testing all of the typefaces above, I have come to the conclusion that Open Sans is my favourite.

You might want to point here for the Roboto font as it has more variations: http://developer.android.com/design/style/typography.html

Thanks, I wasn't aware of all of those variations. As well as changing the links I've given credit to you, and moved Roboto up the list.

Thanks, it does look nice. I'll definitely try it out in skin.

He made some great font, like Nunito : http://www.google.com/webfonts/specimen/Nunito
It's said in the license that you can use it anywhere, at least if you're not selling it and care to include the license file.

it would be great if fonts could be installed by addons. Then all those sources could be linked against and users can more easily decide what font to use.

Wouldn't really work though.
