You may have noticed ... okay, you probably didn't, so I'll point it out right now. Depending on which browser you are using, and whether you use multiple tabs, you may be pretty used to the little white "B" with the orange background. It's the little default icon for a blogspot blog.
Anyway, you probably haven't noticed, but I've recently customized mine. You might not be able to tell but that's a tiny Yoda up there, which is the same, albeit smaller, icon used for my comment avatar.
If you're interested in changing your own favicon, you can feel free to email me for assistance, but first read this tutorial, it's the one I used and it's pretty easy to follow.
Having a custom favicon is really a pretty trivial thing. It's not going to bring more traffic to your blog, it's not going to make an agent sign you, but it is fun, and it only takes a couple minutes to play with.
Anyway, I'm off to bang out another chapter in my re-write. Have a wonderful Friday, readers!

Oh yeah, I notice it now. It's cool. Good luck with your chapter. I'm off to the grocery store before work. Hoping to get some sleep and writing time in this weekend.
I noticed when I opened your blog! It's awesome. I need to get a picture so that I can do this too!!
You are now officially my tech guru.
That's so neat! How Cool! I think I'm okay with my blogger icon but I look forward to seeing the yoda in my comments :)
Oh, that's so cool. Now I just to need to figure out what pic to use. (Hmmm. Or maybe I should clean the bathrooms instead. No, find picture. Way more fun!)
Have a great weekend and have fun editing!
ohmygoodness! i didn't even realize those little pictures had a name!!!
Get in poker accommodation, casino and sportsbook with single Username. I found it very handy and straightforward to understand as I am not home-grown english speaker. http://tinyurl.com/34q69d2
oh, I love this, I shall read that tutorial and try to make my own favicon!
I see Yoda. Cool, I might have to try that.
It's not trivial. It's something else that makes each of us unique. Thanks for sharing!
After adjusting my glasses and peering very close to the screen and trying to ignore the B(logger) sign - yes!! I too see it now!!! Yay!!
Yoda it is!
Wise and clever you are!!
:-) Take care

Good boy! Go get some work done- but I gotta say we miss seeing that yoga head around the blogosphere:)
Oh, I am soooo going to play around with this when I get home!
Very cool!! I like it. :)
I had no idea it was changeable. i will have to find a good pic.
LOL... and LOL @Katie w/the "yoga head" comment... *snort*
this is good. Keep swimming. er-writing~ ;p
I really liked knowing about this! I love dabbing into stuff that arent important but still carry their weight of awesomeness!
Well aren't you just all cute and nerdy :-) Have a good weekend!
I noticed when I opened your blog! Awesome Yoda is.
Strong with the favicon are you.
Thanks for the icon!
i'mmmmmmmmmm going to need to do this. I love playing around with junk like that.
Post officially Starred (in google reader i mean. So i can find it later)
Nice creativity and I hope you enjoy your weekend Matthew.
Noticed, I did! Noticed, I did! Miss Yoda I could not. Not possible, it simply isn't.
very cool! i love it :D
Nice! That's pretty cool; I might have to play around with making one of my own.
Oh Lord Matt, I can't even get my e-mail address to show up, I have no hope of doing something cool like that.
Wow that's so cool!! I had no idea you could change that! Leave it to you to be awesomely individual.
I love the mini Yoda. It's sweet. I wonder if I can get a mini tauntaun, complete with guts spilling out.
Just kidding.
Maybe not.
;)
Very cool.
Um, totally awesome! Hm, now I need to figure out what picture I would do...
Shouldn't it be called a Tabicon? Either way, yours rocks and you're right, it's a small thing, but it's an awesome small thing. Just like Yoda.
My Writing Blog
In a word? Epic. I doff my cap to you :) I'm gonna get me some favicon action!
That's cool! Think I might try that. :)
Good luck with the rewrites! And I'm impressed with your Yoda creating skills! :)
I'm a bit confused...You're going to look like paint chips from now on???
Love all your tabs...
I did it!! Took me a few go's to make it really work but I did it. Thanks, Matthew : )
Very cool - I'll have to play it with when I have a few minutes - thanks for the link :) And Yoda is always a good choice!
Hahahahaha that's awesome. It really is a tiny yoda!
