    It's been a few days that it's "on". It's cool, I like it. It's better than the old one.

    If you ask me whats the old one looks like...I couldnt tell you. I guess it as a G....the new Favicon looks hip and ready for the future..

    I think it looks like Sherwin Williams has puked on my toolbar. WTF is it supposed to be ? Compare it to ebay... same colors... but you know right away which site it belongs to.

    Hold on... having a "70's flashback"... there is a white "g" in that hallucinogenic mess.

    I think they should just choose the classic google "G" Favicon

    The new favicon is better than the old one. They change their favicon so fast. Anyway, I noticed it yesterday :)

    i know the fav is a little thing to change but maybe this will lead to their main page being changed someday?
    I dont see google looking the same in the next 5 years
