When you add a Web site to your home screen, the default icon is a cropped image of the site. This tip explains how to add a custom icon for your Web site.

Reflection on being named "Damen's Favorite 2007"

I can't tell you how truly proud I am to have won the coveted Damen's Favorite award for my towering "Blue Almond Trees" cookie sculpture.
