If you're an avid user of Newsblur and like to keep it pinned in a tab, you may have faced the challenge of not knowing when you have unread stories or how many are left. That's where the Newsblur Favicon Count comes in. This free Chrome add-on, developed by Michael P. Geraci, adds the number of unread stories to the Newsblur favicon, allowing you to stay updated at a glance.

To make the add-on work, you need to enable the "Show unread counts in the window title" option in your Newsblur preferences. Once activated, the Newsblur Favicon Count overlays the number of unread stories onto the Newsblur favicon, making it easy to see how many stories you have left to read without having to switch tabs.

With its simple and convenient functionality, the Newsblur Favicon Count add-on is a great tool for Newsblur users who want to stay on top of their unread stories while keeping the Newsblur tab pinned.
