The great firewall in China stops me from using google fonts. There is a service that clones google fonts inside China called fonts.useso.com
Is it possible to use web font loader with this mirror? If so, please tell me how.
The mirror of Google Fonts by fonts.useso.com is no longer supported as of August 31, 2016. Google is now hosting their fonts through a server in China. See my answer here for more.

Trying to get a font style to work on the Amazon Silk Browser. Went through their documentation but they don't mention it anywhere.
Currently using tiff and woff because it's supported by all the major browsers listed on the w3 Web Font support page (And it works fine on those, but not on amazon silk)
Anyone know where the information regarding supported font formats for the Silk browser can be found? Or know which will work?
Getting reports from visitors that they are seeing a sad face load instead of the maps. Using the latest API.
Has anybody ever seen this or know the reason why it would show up?
We can be sure that our JS API 3.x works properly in all modern browsers and operation systems.
You can't reproduce the issue because it seems your visitors have some own issues on their side related to network, operation system, version of browsers, 32-bit browser installed on 64-bit OS, blocked map content by installed browser's extensions and etc. and etc. Because is not possible to list all potential issues would be better that visitors search the issue on his side e.g. search in internet "browsers can't load websites" or "my browser crashing"
Is there any way to have the Google Earth plugin work post deprecation?
I know newer versions of browsers will stop supporting the necessary plugins to run Google Earth plugin but is there a way to use older version of a browser with our own Google Earth Enterprise? The Google Earth Enterprise should host the API I assume.
Yes, but only for a limited time. Google Earth Enterprise will only be supported until March 22, 2017
When you access PlayN's site you see that PlayN's logo uses Google colors: http://code.google.com/p/playn/
Also, Lilli Thompson talked about PlayN at New Game Conference in 2011 as a Google game developer advocate. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=iK9Xl58IxKw&t=4 (I haven't watched the video.)
But she's not at Google anymore (http://plus.google.com/111647958621817995641/posts/EVptyYGHSfd and http://twitter.com/lillithompson/status/183299616647811072)
However, When you visit https://developers.google.com/games > Web games or > Mobile Games, there's no reference to PlayN. You find Android development, which links to http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html. There's a Google Play Game Services (GPGS) too, that offers social features (achievements, multiplayer, leaderboard) for game development for Android, iOS and Web (http://developers.google.com/games/services). There are "Getting started" tutorials for GPGS for each platform (Android, iOS, Web). No PlayN, which compiles to these three platforms plus Java desktop.
So, is PlayN really supported by Google? Or was it once, and now the community is by itself?
Playn is a community supported project, and i suspect always will remain such. Google had a hand in making it, but their contribution recently has been waning. But it doesn't mean the project is dying or anything.
Is there any free font available to use with sIFR #font-face etc?
if i use those then nobody will file a court case on me, no body will send any legal notice to me.?
Are thee good tension free, license free fonts available to use personally, commercially in my projects, in client projects?
Nobody should send any notice to my lovely clients about font?

http://www.fontspace.com/ is a good resource. Visiting the page for the font shows the fonts licencing info, but its probably good practice to visit the font authors website and look for the copyright licencing info. Sometimes licencing info will be contained within the downloaded font file in a text document. Fonts that are freeware and have a 'commecial use allowed' licence is what you're looking for.
