It’s amazing, isn’t it? Even a sneeze at google makes the headlines. Well, it’s not the sneeze today but the new favicon I just got. So, are you also seeing the all new, re-designed, artisticly polished “g” as the new favicon?

New Google Favicon

In other news, my Twitter-Webcam integration post has bypassed my earlier lifehacked post about Remote File Access Through E-mail by more than a few thousands, even though the time difference between the two posts is more than 3 months. Thanks Stumble Upon :)

    Didn’t work for me, I still got the old one.

    Hmmm, seems like a hit and a miss..sometimes I’m getting it, sometimes i dont. May be they have added the new icon only to a few servers. Can u try with a few different proxies?

    theres a greasemonkey script to get the old one back

  4. Shantanu Goel Says:

    Thnx for the link Yowzi. Looks like that the person who wrote the script, basically embedded the old icon into his script (as base64 text) and replaced the browser’s favicon fetch to this embedded icon in his script. Still nifty though..
