The Mysteries of Google, continued

Google has changed its favicon in Firefox, but not in Internet Explorer. [1]
Puzzling.
In IE it's still the boxy capital G we're all used to.
In Firefox, it's suddenly the lower-case g ("good girl's glasses").
Weird how such a small thing can be such a big distraction.
(Not unlike corn in Italian wedding soup.)

[1] Is this a geek badge?

I suspect that it isn't that they only did it in one place but that the image caching settings on your IE are different from those in your Firefox.

Ha! Not a geek badge at all. It's a geek badge for Jeanne. I'll try a hard refresh and see what happens.
Which leads to the question: Why the change in the first place?
