Also: annoying confirmation dialog when you "mark all as read".

Not new... I remember it used to that one but Google changed it to the standard Google favicon a while back and now they switch back to the Reader one.

Not seeing the confirmation dialog...

I think it looks different now. It used to look like this:

I'm still seeing the usual one too.

But If it makes any difference, I am seeing the new one here:

I don't know, the new favicon makes me think I'm looking at a 3D image without the 3D glasses. Me no likey.

FYI – Just noticed that they're using a different new icon in the Google Account page:

I don't know if this is new (I couldn't find it in other posts), but seems like there is a third version of the Google Reader icon, at least if we count the one that appears in My Account.
Right now, I'm seeing this logo:

Is this new? I like it more than the actual favicon.

I remember that I have seen it the day after they changed the favicon.
I still prefer the all-blue one ;)
