# Google got a new Shortcut icon (Favicon)

Today I noticed that Google's old(Capitol letter G with colored border) favicon has been replaced with a new simple lowercase 'g'  in blue color with some gray gradiant.

 Google has recently [updated its Google Reader favicon](http://www.derick.in/86/google-reader-gets-a-new-favicon/), and now its turn for its main favicon.

  It looks like Google is doing a whole brand identity update. :)
