Stumbling around aimlessly online, as I often do, I found the tool that generates that tiny little icon that sits next to the title of your website. It is used in the site tabs and also for sites you bookmark.

This little branding image makes your site look official and ultra-professional. That tiny icon, by the way, is called a favicon (or a favorites icon).

Official and professional sounding definition: A favicon is a small, 16×16 image that is shown inside the browser’s location bar and bookmark menu when your site is called up. It is a good way to brand your site and increase it’s prominence in your visitor’s bookmark menu.

Dynamic Drive has a plethora of cool and useful tools like this one, for your web and blog designing success. The favicon generator can be used right online. In seconds you’ll have your tiny favicon code. The website also tells you the proper place to put the code to get everything working properly.

This is another no brainer, no reason not to use, easy decision.
