Everyone is changing their avatars on Twitter, because they are suffering from what Mashable is calling manga kerrazy and it’s driving me nuts. FaceYourManga is a free service that allows you to simply create your own cartoon version of your face. While it’s a fun little service, it’s annoying me for two reasons.

plus the page never changes just the icon. It's different when all we have
is out icon/avatar. Word.

I have to admit though, I did have fun creating a manga, but I didn't have any plans on changing my avatar everywhere. Might have had something to do with that it didn't look anything like me. :D

to other people to create your avatar. This way we can get a more honest
appearing version. For example, mine probably wouldn't have an extra chin or
two if someone else made it. :-)

networks. I understand that not everybody wants to show the world their
face, but I think as social media progresses and becomes more common we'll
want to include our own faces.
It's tough looking for online friends at conferences if all you know is an
avatar rather than a picture.

Actually, since I do have video up on the web as well, my concerns about my picture being out there are irrelevant. Fine. I just like the cartoon image. I see it as being kind of like my "logo" for my personal brand.

conferences anyway, assuming it's up :-)

This is precisely why I begged LinkedIn for a long time to allow us to post our photos, because you meet someone at a conference or an important new business contact, and need both the face and the name to help remember them.
I quite like what Chris Brogan does--he often takes a new photo that day and posts it, so we can see how he is looking that particular day. It still looks like him and he is recognizable. I also reserve the right to periodically change my avatar for specific purposes--such as when I recently dramaticaly changed my hair and no longer looked like my photo, or when I did the "Blue Elvis" series of tweets on Twitter over a year ago.
It is interesting to see how important this has become.
Cheers,
Connie
P.S. I have this (different) avatar in the comments because Discus won't let me use my other avatar claiming it is too big a file. I have to figure out how to resize my avatar so I can change it! I'll be honest--it bugs me that I am still using the Twitter fail robot here. :-P

This gets really tough when you're following hundreds of people. I've
actually just passed 1,000, so if you change your avatar I may even miss
your tweet.

Good tip about the screenshot as well.
