Face Dances Alright

My f-i-l queued me into a new feature of Google's Picasa Web Albums: face recognition. Via a very simple interface, you can teach the system to recognize your friends and family and tag your photos appropriately. It's only on the web albums now, but I imagine it will soon be available for the client software version. I have thousand of digital photos that I can't wait to tag with names. Imagine being able to see all the shots of yourself when you visit. Exciting.

On a side note, I don't trust Google. I bet the security cameras of the world now "know" Sean.
