Favicons (short for favorites icons) are those tiny icons you
see beside the URL in your browser's URL bar. Most sites uses these favicons to differentiate one from another when one open multiple tabs in his or her browser.
To have a favicon, you'll have to upload the favicon.ico file into the root directory of a web server. However, those who are using the Blogger platform would have the default Blogger favicon uploaded. To change the orignial Blogger favicon to your personal one, you'd have to first host it somewhere. However, popular photo sharing platforms such as Flickr and Photobucket don't support .ico images. Hence, this is when some image sharing/hosting sites that supports .ico images come in handy.
