The problem is the | symbol in the Google Fonts URL. I've sent them word about this, so hopefully they start handing out URL encoded URLs here soon. But, change any | symbol in a URL to %7C, which is the encoding for a | symbol:
<link href='http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Changa+One%7COpen+Sans:400italic,700italic,400,700,800' rel='stylesheet' type='text/css'>

Courses Plus Student 2,756 PointsYeah I had to go to stackoverflow.com and find the answer from someone else's post. My question is how come it didn't throw any errors for Nick in the video?
Marcus Parsons
