Thanks for clarifying that, Greg. Social networks already have all your personal info explicitly entered in. Just how much more can they find out about you from your pictures that they don’t already know from your profile?

SN sites have he worst Click rates in the market, primarily due to the fact that people are there to connect with other people, not to click on ads. its a hard road to plow in SN sites, but they have the inventory to offer up. so i gues these guys make money on the uptick in rates, so it will be a long long time before they make some real money. provided it works they scale fast, they should sell to AOL, they have been overpaying for all kinds of things lately. This is not a stand alone company for sure and will not make it to 100M in revenue anytime soon.

Interesting. Can you identify political images? e.g. obama signs, democrat banners, mccain ads, Sarah palin herself. So I can sell merchandise respectively? Can this be deployed in public places?

Regarding the comment about “the ads will be tailored to them not you”.

In our conversations with the SNS – they are not only interested in what you as an individual look at but who you are and what types of images you have posted and what those images might tell us about you. Meaning, the technology can service both sides.

Using this type of “dual serving” technology offers these sites twice the impact on ad relevancy.

Thing is, you look at other people's faces on social networks. The ads will be tailored to them, not you.

Image recognition to me means that it must be able to identify two attached legs.
