Gravatar: globally recognized avatar

Gravatar manages your identity on the web:



A gravatar, or globally recognized avatar, is quite simply an 80×80 pixel avatar image that follows you from weblog to weblog appearing beside your name when you comment on gravatar enabled sites. Avatars help identify your posts on web forums, so why not on weblogs?


Simple as 1,2,3:



  1. Register on Gravatar

  2. Comment on Gravatar enabled sites

  3. eh.. that's it: Gravatar takes care of the rest :-)

Biggest full moon of the year this week

This week's full Moon (Oct. 25-26) is the biggest full Moon of 2007. It's no illusion. Some full Moons are genuinely larger than others and Thursday night's will be as much as 14% wider and 30% brighter than lesser full Moons we have seen earlier this year.


Spaceweather.com explains why.
