Off topic though, just to inform you that Google websites have updated their favicons. The new Google icon looks a bit futuristic, but doesn't have that gorgeous appearance of the previous favicon as the new one is a simple g letter. Blogger also has got a new green colour favicon with the letters, hp (strange!) which is displayed only in feed readers. GMail's new favicon - is still the old one, and still in beta.
