It looks like the Avatar concept is finally taking root in a more two-dimensional path, though conceptually unlimited manner in the context of the Internet and social networking.

Though, of course, not the same beast -- but -- certainly inspirational toward how it can tie-in with say, virtual worlds, and how we can display iconographic Gravatar identity along with our information from our blogs, our social networks -- anywhere where we store ourselves.
