What is a Gravatar?

No doubt you’ve noticed the sexy little creature next to my comment posts when responding to your random bursts of geometry. That is a Gravatar? A Gravatar is an avatar. An avatar? Yeahvatar! A Gravatar follows you from blog to blog, and pops up along side many comment posts on many blog types. It’s tied to your email address, so whatever email address you give to validate yourself in a comments post will poke the computer and say “yo, sup? My picture be over here.”

Where do you set this lovely piece of bit art? gravatar.com. Register your email address with them, upload a tiny image of awesome, and you too will have avtastic comment art to add to bazillions of blogs sphere-o-blog-wide.
