Enhanced Google image search.

I don't know if that is entirely a good thing. What if you are searching for something of a certain persuasion and you get something back that can scar you for life?

It is definitely going to help me to find cheaper sources of images licences. So like all tools its usage and effect is dependent on user. :)

I just noticed that now we can drag and drop images into the google image search box[^] - where we use to type in the keywords- and it search for the same. :cool: :thumbsup:
F*cking hell. I am, quite literally, gobsmacked. I took a picture of Cerreg Cennen Castle that I took in 2000 and it correctly identified it, named it, and found me simmilar pictures of the castle as quickly as it took to upload. That is damn impressive stuff.
Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together. Manfred R. Bihy: "Looks as if OP is learning resistant."

Dragging from other webpage is producing better results - looks like it is considering metadata from that website too.

naga jolokia Google found it just fine. Must be the meta data and/or exif data.

When I gave it the castle, the exif was very limited: camera make and model, date and time, resolution. No GPS, no nothing - it was a very early digital which didn't have all those fancy features. It spotted it from the image... Mind you, I gave it a picture of a medlar fruit and it missed that completely, and it isn't too good at faces: I gave it one of the wife, and it came back with Arnie...I haven't told her.

:laugh: :laugh: :thumbsup: [edit] the thumbs up was because I thought the joke was funny, not that I agreed your wife looks like Arnie. :-D

It recognized my company logo from a jpg I have stashed. No exif at all in that file - it's been converted from one format to another several times over. Of course a company logo is probably child's play to recognize. My guess? They're using the Goggles code on the uploaded images.

Unless, of course, well...you don't have any unexplained children running around, do you?

Interesting. If they have a similar image cached then they could do a comparison between the image pixels of the cached version and the uploaded image pixels and look for similarities. When I uploaded my image, it did take a while for it to return a result but damn if it wasn't the hottest chili pepper on earth.

I just tried a picture of someone lying on top of one of the columns at the holocaust memorial in Berlin, which is showing on the Irish Times website at the minute (there doesn't appear to be any story linked to the picture). Google images couldn't recognize it, it did throw out a collection of black and white images with either stripes or square patterns on them. I also tried it with the jpg downloaded and named HolocaustMemorialBerlin.jpg with the same result.
