About
The charset declaration directive, specified via an HTML meta tag or HTTP headers, defines the character encoding used to interpret text in a web document.
If not explicitly declared, browsers attempt to detect the encoding or fall back to defaults, which can lead to incorrect rendering or even security issues in some cases.
Gravatar is a profile management system that allows users to create profiles linked to their email addresses instead of their names.
