Blogger Is Back
Blogspot has been crashed for posting for about a day. But it is back and so am I. I have been saving a few words for just such an occasion. You will see them in the next post.

Making A Favicon
For some time now I have wanted a custom icon for my browser tab. It is really simple to make one. Here is how to do it for Blogger blogs.
Make a picture with your digital camera or scanner and save it as a .jpg on your hard drive.
Go to FavIcon from Pics and hit the browse button to get your saved image from the directory you saved it in.
Then hit Generate FavIcon.ico button. It will ask you where you want to save the .zip file. Save it.
Go to the directory the .zip file was saved and right click on the file and do an Extract All....
You will have a file called Favico its extension is .ico You can change the name of the file if you like.
Post this file as a web page. I use My Web Page by Netscape.
Once the file has a url, save the url some place useful like a text file.
Then go to your blogger editing tools and click on Template. Then click on Edit HTML
Look for the tag <head>
Right below that tag add the following HTML
<link href='url of Favicon' rel='shortcut icon'/>
<link href='url of Favicon' rel='icon'/>
Then SAVE TEMPLATE
All done. Refresh your blog page and your FavIcon will show up.
If you need more help this Google page has lots of good links.
For more help with other blogging tools go to this Google page which is more general.
Thanks to Luboš Motl for the hints that got me started.

Blogger Not Blogging
Blogger software that is.
Blogger has been very cranky the last few days when it comes to accepting posts. Or even refreshing pages. Hopefully this will soon be over and normal posting frequencies will resume.
BTW how about dem Bears? Not as good as the '85 team IMO. Still one of the best teams in the league for a long time. For nostalgia fans, here are the words to the Super Bowl Shuffle. A video of The Super Bowl Shuffle.
