Google’s New Blue Fav Icon [Favicon.ico]

So… A new blue fav icon adorned my Firefox location bar this afternoon when I fired up my iGoogle homepage.

New Google Fav icon:

Old Google Fav icon:

Is Google redesigning their logo or was someone at Google just having a slow Friday?

Perhaps it’ll just change back on Monday and the world will never know!! No. No. Never. I refuse to believe it!

Maybe changing the Fav icon was just a little nugget of nothing for the blogging community to chew on and create buzz… simply a clever ruse…

EDIT: Apparently the new icon isn’t yet appearing on localized versions of Google, but this is normal of anything Google rolls out anyway.

SEO Page and File Names

Just  a quick note because I thought this was a really good piece of information to know.

As far as search engine optimization (SEO) goes, a file or page name like this_is_a_file_name.htm will appear as one word to search engines like thisisafilename. So its unlikely it’ll be picked up in searches.

However, if you use hyphens instead of underscores like this-is-a-better-file-name.htm search engines will read it as this is a better file name thereby greatly increasing readability and searchabilty (yeah, it’s not a word, but I like making words here at 365D)

I have a lot of good stuff coming and lots of stuff in drafts. Hopefully, I’ll be able to get back to daily posting this next week.

Super Mario Reloaded

You might have to suspend your knowledge that Mario and Luigi are bothers while you watch this (or maybe you don’t, could Neo and Agent Smith been brothers? I’m not sayin’… I’m just sayin’).
