Online Favicon Grabber
Favicons of social networking websites can be used on our blogs, websites etc as bookmarking icons. You don’t have create new ones, infact I prefer using the default favicon. You see the Twitter favicon in the sidebar.
Mindzilla Icon Grabber is a free online utility that retrieves the shortcut icon for a selected web page and converts the icon into a more useful format.
New Google Favicon Spotted
It was last year in May, when Google came out with a new favicon image for their sites. No one expected it to release a new favicon again this year.
They have now replaced the ‘g’ favicon with a more colorful one. For some reason, I don’t like the new one. Google.com now has the new favicon, along with other Google sites slowly getting the update.
Revert Back To Old Google Favicon
You all must have noticed the new Google favicon image, which is now a simple blue-coloured g, instead of the colourful-boxed G. Some people are liking it and have appreciated the new favicon, but on the other side there are people, like me, who think that the old favicon was better. I really don’t like this favicon, and have found a way by which you can revert back to the old one.
It’s a very simple Greasemonkey script (What is this?) which changes the new Google favicon with the old favicon image.
