No people, but I'm already using this a lot, much better than Tineye.

what do you use a reverse image search for?

Its great for finding the source of an image which usually provides a better quality and higher resolution image

The heck is TinEye?  Not hard to kill something no one knows of.

Wow. Was anyone doing this before TinEye, or did Google just see that example, briefly wonder aloud, "I wonder if I can do that, too?" and devote 20% of its vast, juggernaut-like resources to the problem and find, "Yes, yes I can" while bankrupting and befouling the dreams of the startup which had inspired them?

this is so useful

Gazopa came out in 2008.  I'm not sure if TinEye was before that.  But Gazopa was a bit different in that it looked for similar images, not duplicates.  I liked it better but it's been shut down for a bit now.

i might've felt some sympathy for them if tineye wasn't such a piece of shit

I had to identify fish, comedians and art thusfar.

[Himu]

I used this to identify some art, a locale place in Houston, and food so far.

It is genius, thank you google!

[Yoritomo]

Awesome for internet e-detectives.

[Shaka Khan]

Can it be used to check whether a photo is shopped or not, by digging up originals? I dont if their algorithm would allow that, but it would be a pretty good use.

[Himu]

Don't think so. I just tried the current logo and it just gives me a bunch of blue shit, not nick frost. But I try mcd's avatar and it gives me a ton of pertinent results.
