Gada.be Favicons
Okay, we've been silent for a while – but for good reason. I can't share that reason with you right now, but I hope to be able to do so soon enough. Last night, I stumbled into a site run by Douglas – specifically, a page about Dynamic News Feeds. I flipped out when I saw all the favicons; I love favicons. Immediately, I believed that Douglas had retrieved these icons automatically from the feeds – but that may not have been the case (as evidenced by his favicon tool entry). Moments later, he had pointed me to an offsite script – and then hours later, he had built another one for himself. I showed them to Shayne, and he did something that I have never seen in a search engine:
Favicons next to every Headline!
Go ahead, try a new search in Gada.be. If this is a first, I'm thrilled. If we weren't the first to pull it off, then at least we're thinking about taking the favicon script open source – and doing other things with favicons in the future. It's too much fun (oh, and quite functional).
