Would Post Titles Look Better Like This?

For no real reason whatsoever I was just playing with some different fonts for the title text of videos and wondered what ye all might think. I think the font looks pretty eye-catching, but it's also a little bit of jarring because I'm so used to the plain old font.

In any case, you can try it out by adding ?fonttest=1 to the end of any VideoSift URL. For example:
http://videosift.com?fonttest=1
http://videosift.com/talk?fonttest=1
http://videosift.com/video/Enya-Watermark?fonttest=1

What do you think? Just curious.

[update]
I can see that this poll is heading downhill fast, so I've changed up the font a bit. This should get a few more Yes votes!

Truthfully,
It's hard to know if the font you are seeing, is the font I am seeing (or the font others are seeing).
For us to pick up on the font change, We need to have the same font installed on our computers.

What I am seeing looks like a Times Roman font. So I like the Sans font better.

Perhaps these tables can help you decide on which fonts are the most popular across most computers.

Lucky, I've worked in typesetting a number of years. The headline font the site uses NOW works very well. The other fonts you are suggesting are NOT an improvement!

Yes, I have looked at the UPDATE fonts.
