my $hash = md5_hex lc($email);
print "http://gravatar.com/avatar/${hash}.jpg\n";
I use them at work for showing tooltip displays upon email receipt etc. They’re fun and handy to add to any little application.

Hacked together a little ACL package for creating dynamic ACLs based on a few simple ideas:
Sys-Admins like Perl style Regex
