Amateur Facial Recognition?
From michaelzimmer.org:
An interesting post by Zimmer on how its possible to search on a Google Image Search for just faces (e.g., “&imgtype=face” appended to the query). Google is essentially providing a database of faces, which could be useful for facial recognition. While there are potentially scary applications, for now, its just something interesting. I'll be curious if anyone is using this with smart cameras.
