GravWall

gravwall.jpg GravWall is a tiny application I wrote that queries a Wordpress database for unique comment authors and randomly displays their gravatars as a wall. If a link exists for the user, then the gravatar will link back to the user’s site. Neat, aye?

On sites with lots of comments, such as Squible, the application looks pretty neat. Thanks to Matt Maber for suggesting the cloud idea to me and for testing it out.

There’s plenty that you can do with it. For instance, with a couple of small changes you could use it to display X number of random gravatars on your home page. The possibilities are endless in the teens. (more…)

Do you like where you live?

I only ask because my wife and I plan on leaving Connecticut by December, 2007. We are kind of tired of it here (that kind of thing will happen after 33 years) and it’s really wide open as to where we’ll go. I’m open to suggestions, but here are the places that have been suggested to me so far: Austin, North Carolina, Seattle, and San Diego. We are planning on taking a couple of vacations this year to scope out potential places to live, so I’d love to hear about your home and what you think of it.
