Google testing new fonts?

I'm starting to see ads with "Slabo"

It seems that Google is testing new fonts in AdSense text ads. Starting yesterday, I'm seeing ads using the "Slabo" font family, a narrow, slab serif typeface. This font family isn't available in the AdSense font options, though.

I'm seeing that too. It sure looks "weird" since I've never used a font even close to that.

Definitely, I think I've seen three different ones today, a couple of them looked pretty good, pity I have virtually zero traffic!

Since Wednesday, I've yet to see a normal "optimal" font- just the Slabo. Which looks fantastic next to my minimalist designed site- not!

Slabo - Yep, that's one of the ones I'm seeing, I have no idea about font names, useless I am!
