Lately everytime Facebook has made a change to their site, it has been something annoying and unwanted. I still can’t take the news feed section which allows me to see every friend of mine who friended someone, joined some group like “I have a hairy back,” or endless updates to Farmville.
However once in a while Facebook makes a change that is rather helpful, at least to bloggers and web designers.
Facebook changed all the Join Group or Become a Fan verbage to Like, plain and simple. However what they also did was now allow websites to install a Like button their own site.

In this post we are going to examine a number of things:
1. How to use the video embed code from your video site

If you’ve ever commented on a blog than I’m sure you’ve seen images associated with certain commentors. Perhaps you’ve been commenting on a few fitness marketing or fat loss blogs and you’ve seen some people have images next to their names. Perhaps you don’t?
There is a simple little service that you can sign up for that allows you to have an image (if the blog you’re commenting on supports it). That site is called Gravatar.
Let’s define gravatar really quickly – Gravatar (an abbreviation for globally recognized avatar) is a service for providing globally-unique avatars which was created by Tom Preston-Werner.
In this post we will discuss how to use gravatar and what are some of the reasons you should be using this free service.
