This may also be of interest: Automattic, the company of Wordpress
founder Matt Mullenweg, has bought Gravatar:

I guess that's a good thing. Gravatar has been incredibly slow at times
(thus increasing a site's load time) - so much so that I've disabled it
on most of my sites. The Wordpress guys have some experience with load-
balancing, so let's hope they make Gravatar speedy (and usable) again.

bye, Dirk
