    Okay, I'll ask because I'm sure I'm not the only one. What's a favicon?

      it is the little pic to the left of the domain in the address bar

      For BC it is the red BC dialog box

      ah, yes I noticed it changed too. Didn't know it had a name tho, thanks.

    I've been seeing it for days. I think it dates back to Friday but I'm not sure.

    @drowsey
    A favicon is a small personalized iconic symbol associated with a site and you can find it by looking up at your browser bar. The one for BC is a little red one with bc in white font. The one for google is a blue lower case g on a white background.

    Defined here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Favicon
    There's a favicon generator here www.favicon.cc/

    A day or three ago.

    Curious choice, upper case to lower case "g" - I think the old one is more immediately identifiable. But, the new one is attractive, too.

    I noticed it a few days ago, too. It's not ugly, but I don't really like it.

    I noticed it last Saturday or Sunday (5/31 or 6/1). It looks like a sideways infinity symbol. It's cute but it doesn't really stand out.

    Just tell me that the blue color is so sweet

    I noticed it but didn't pay attention to it. Thought it was odd. Only now when I went back and looked does is it noticeable to me that it's a "g".
