The Internet is a brain

This might sound far-fetched, but compare the two images below. The one on the left is a partial map of the Internet; the one on the right is an image of brain neurons. Jeff Stibel has an intriguing article on this subject:
Let's get concrete about what I mean here. The brain is one of the most complex networks in the world, with more neurons than there are stars in the galaxy. Its hardware is a complex network of neurons; its software a complex network of memories. And so too is the Internet a network. Its hardware is a complex network of computers; its software a complex network of websites. There is a lot we can learn from the brain and it can tell us where the Internet is headed next.

Why You Need to be Using Gravatars

Have you every noticed how, on most blogs, some of the comments are accompanied by images – usually of the commenter or their logo – while others, even on the same blog, may simply be accompanied by a default or otherwise generated image? Have you ever wondered how people get these images?

Most of the time, it’s simply their Gravatar.

Yahoo's Graded Browser Support

Yahoo has a great way of classifying browsers:
An appropriate support strategy allows every user to consume as much visual and interactive richness as their environment can support. This approach—commonly referred to as progressive enhancement — builds a rich experience on top of an accessible core, without compromising that core.
