Thanks for pointing that out, and my apologies. The CEO confirmed what you said this morning. I've updated the post and changed the title so that it is not misleading. I've got to be more careful. about those late night posts.

It finds copies of images and does a good job. It finds even ones that are modified - noise, color, stretch, crop, some photoshopping. It doesn't work as well with rotation. That's a major drawback (compare to Lincoln from MS Research). I tried TinEye recently. It finds copies of images and does a good job.
