Favicons in Bloglines

May 7th, 2006 by User Imageemile

I’m surprised to find out that Bloglines does not update the favicons (the small icons that appear next to the feed name) dynamically. After quickly Googling the subject, I saw that you had to manually request that your feeds be ‘updated’, so that the favicon would show up. Very strange, since most other feed readers or browsers check for the favicon each time they pull the page. My only guesses are that they are doing it for bandwidth reasons, or that they don’t want your brand cluttering up ‘their’ page.

The email:

An email requesting Bloglines 'update' our feeds, so the favicons show up.

The results:
