According to Wikipedia:

A favicon (short for favorites icon), also known as a website icon, shortcut icon, url icon, or bookmark icon is a 16×16 pixel square icon associated with a particular website or webpage.

BlogSpot [Blogger.com] has it's own but it's so boring. It's the 'B' logo with the orange background just like the picture above. But we can change that it's one of the perks here on Blogger.com we can customize our blog to the full extent unlike in free WordPress blog.

Okay first step: Go find your own picture & we will convert it to an icon. Go to this website to convert it. What picture to choose? Anything it can be your own photo, your blog logo or even a photo of your grandma. Upload your pic, then click DOWNLOAD.

Now, upload it to some free 'photo hosting' website. I tried it on TinyPic & it worked for me.

Then log-in to your Blogger account, Click LAY-OUT then EDIT HTML. Press Ctrl + F then find this code:

Then put this code after it. Make sure you change the image URL because that URL is for the favicon that I currently use.

Your code must look like this:

Then click PREVIEW if everything looks okay, then hit the SAVE button. Here's the end result for me, you can also see it if you're using Mozilla FireFox or Internet Explorer, not on Google Chrome & other browsers.

For Nip/Tuck and Glee creator Ryan Murphy — a man who likes change — discovering the best-selling memoir Eat Pray Love proved a real boon. The 44-year-old filmmaker read the book upon its 2006 release and felt an immediate connection. He’d even go as far as saying that the book altered his life. “It spoke to me on such a personal level,” begins Murphy, the man who adapted the screenplay and directed the cinematic incarnation starring Julia Roberts . “I read it as a fan, I had just come through a terrible break up, and what it said to me is that it is never too late to reinvent yourself. It is never too late to try to be happy. If you are in a bad relationship try and get out of it and if you don’t like where you are living, try and change it.” The book, and indeed the film, tells the true-life tale of Elizabeth Gilbert , a successful travel writer who falls out of love with her husband and suffers a painful divorce. Gnawed at by guilt, she takes a year out, heading first to Ro

SMFI Health and Medical Programs senior project manager Albert Uy runs through how the system functions. Rainwater harvesting is a way of collecting and storing rainwater for later use. It is an effective and adaptable way to conserve water and reduce reliance on main water supplies. Due to its efficacy, it has been applied by many civilizations in history and is being utilized today by forward-thinking institutions as a sustainable water management strategy. SM group’s social good arm, SM Foundation, Inc. (SMFI), for one, has embraced this by installing rainwater harvesting systems in two of the local health centers it recently refurbished–Brgy. Irawan Birthing Facility in Puerto Princesa, Palawan, and San Fernando, Cebu Primary Health Care Facility. Ready in times of emergency Dr. Alfredo P.
