    wow thanks for the links. I never thought of making one of these. Is it possible to add this to a blogger blog? How do I upload the file to blogger?

    I prefer work on my PC using this software recommended by Google's Guru Mat Cutts:

    Code (markup):

    You might try this way:

    
    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="path_to_your_image/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />.  
    
    Code (markup):
    Where path_to_your_image is the address of the location where you uploaded your favicon.

    Upload it to the /images folder, assuming that you're going to add the following code in the header
    <link rel="shortcut icon" href="images/favicon.ico" type="image/x-icon" />

    You mean you can't add that line to the header?
    No access to the template? Hosting your blog on a free blogging site?
