As of July 15, 2009, Google Sites officially supports the ability to customize the favicon for your Google Sites website.

What is a favicon?

According to Wikipedia, a favicon (short for favorites icon), also known as a website icon, shortcut icon, url icon, or bookmark icon is a 16x16 pixel square icon associated with a particular website or webpage. The favicon is often displayed in your browser's address bar, bookmarks/favorites list, tabs and even desktop shortcuts to web pages.
