Noticed any changes on Google’s Favicon? We’ll Google is a big multinational company, aside from being very popular of which I know some of you made Google your default home page, you might have noticed that they’ve changed their Favicon.  Here are their set of Favicon Family.

But have you ever heard why Google changed their Favicon after all those years? Well Marissa Mayer stated on Google’s Blog that “The reason is that we wanted to develop a set of icons that would scale better to some new platforms like the iPhone and other mobile devices”.

Although some users didn’t like the new icon, personally I like the Favicon for Mobile and now I will be missing the “G” icon.

Creating these icons went into a lot of iterations, searching for the best that they were looking for.  Below are the iterations that they’ve made before coming up with the Favicon Family set.  Now that they are still open for suggestions and new ideas, you are welcome to send your own design to Google.  You may send it to Google Favicon Ideas and be sure to read the Terms and Agreement.
