How can I get a favicon to show up in my django app?

I just want to drop the favicon.ico in my staticfiles directory and then have it show up in my app.

How can I accomplish this?

I have placed the favicon.ico file in my staticfiles directory, but it doesn’t show up and I see this in my log:

127.0.0.1 - - [21/Feb/2014 10:10:53] "GET /favicon.ico HTTP/1.1" 404 -

If I go to http://localhost:8000/static/favicon.ico, I can see the favicon.
