Simon Willison : Return of the HTTP overhead delay - Return of the HTTP overhead delay. Christian proposes a neat way of improving page performance, by delaying non-essential images such as avatars until after the rest of the page has loaded.
deusx : Return of the HTTP overhead delay - this time without a server side component - Wait till I come! - "Following my post yesterday about delaying the loading of avatar images to cut down on HTTP requests I was wondering if there is a way to do this without having to resort to a server side solution. In short, there is."

But Pownce still seems to me to be—at its core—a life backchannel rather than a productivity aid.
