Google has made its jam packed font collection easier to download via sync with SkyFonts. The announcement was made on their blog.

 

The goal of Google Fonts has always been to bring beautiful, open-source fonts to the web, fast and free of cost. Starting today, you can download these fonts for offline access on your desktop. We’ve made all of the fonts from the Google Fonts directory available in SkyFonts, a tool from Monotype that allows you to install and sync fonts from the web onto your Windows or Mac OS X devices.

Google offer over 600 free fonts. You can download these for use today here.
