Hello, I added a favicon to my forum. URL: http://www.unitedwebtalk.com But does it really help the site in any way? Make it a little bit more unique or anything?
Definitely better to have one than not. Oh and when users have a whole bunch of tabs open it'll help your site stand out.
With tabbed browsing the favicon has become a lot more useful for identifying your site in a sea of tabs. Definetly worth having it.
