Google's New Favicon: Like it, or Hate It?

Google got a new Favicon back in June that I really didn't like. While the new one they debuted this month still plays on the small "g" (which I don't like), it's better than what they had in June.

Better it may be, but I still don't see how a lower-case "g" is more appropriate than an upper-case "G". I like the old standard "G" the best.

What do you think?

Boo.

I call that you get to choose from a list of all the previous logos.

They made an app for the main google picture.

My 2cents.

Absolutely detest the new one. Of course, my hatred for it is something that might need looking into. It is, after all, a favicon. Still. Hate it.
