Gravatars

I stumbled across Gravatars today. A Gravatar is a globally recognized avatar. Any site that uses them will display the same avatar for you, automatically (it's based on your e-mail address).

Within half an hour, I had them up and running on my site. Now it's time for everyone to get one. Visit the Gravatar website and register. It's free and super simple (they just want your e-mail address and a password). Then upload an 80x80 image and away you go!
