Like no one else...


Pretty cool this...

The Like.com engine takes both text and images as queries, something no one else does. Like.com compares a “visual signature” for the query image to possible results. The visual signature is simply a mathematical representatioin of the image using 10,000 variables. If enough variables are identical, Like.com decides the images are similar.

What this means - If you see an image on the web, like a watch that Paris Hilton is wearing, and use it as an image query, Like.com will return results showing watches that look very similar.
