This is Apple Magic, guys... I _have_ to answer that one. Read below

I am discussing browsers and sites and Macs all the time on macosx.com,
at the office and on icity.net.tc. And the favicons, although supported
in Chimera and Communicator never were a subject. Most of those people
(like 80%) were using Chimera for months now. Then: Boom. Three days
after Safari builds were out, people started having favicons on their
websites. I also wanted them for my site. Not because the others did,
because of Safari. favicons always were, well, unsexy. They made not
much sense, in a way. But how Apple implemented them, they suddenly
made much, much more sense. Sites stick out in the history list and in
your bookmark list, you can visually search for entries (rather, you do
that without thinking). The request for this feature by Eugene Lee is
another drop on that feeling I had. It just makes sense...
