Adding a Shortcut Icon

Perhaps you have noticed the JohnnyCoder icon appears in your address bar and favorites now?

How was this done? I cut out Johnny’s right eye and pasted it into my favorite icon maker application. I then saved the .ico file to my site and added the following line of code to the Head of the associated HTML like so:

<link rel=“shortcut icon” href=“http://johnnycoder.com/blog/favicon.ico” type=“image/x-icon” />
