Google favicon change (Nothing to do with wine!)

But, hey, we’re a website about wine on the internets, aren’t we?

I’m sure most everyone noticed how Google switched their favicon from Google favicon old to Google favicon new? A subtle change… only 16 by 16 pixels.

Google says the new icon was created to “scale better to some new platforms like the iPhone and other mobile devices”. Perhaps. But aside from the fact that it looks like a droopy figure-eight, my paranoid side hopes it’s not the start of Google’s “We’re Gentle and Can Be Trusted (Even Though We’re Becoming the Man)” marketing campaign.

Relate this to wine any way you like…
