Bridge to Nova

This is the coolest trick I've ever got for Google.

You can use Google Image search to search only faces of people. Did you know that already? If not yet, try these:

- Ordinary Image Search for Microsoft
- Faces Image Search for Microsoft

This picture is faces search for keyword, "Microsoft", on Google Images.



You need to add the following line after the image search queries to use face search.

&imgtype=face

Your address bar should look like below:



If you don't want to use manually typing, you can select from Google Advance Image Search option as in the following picture.



How could this be useful? Well, if you are looking for images of the people behind popular companies, products or even countries, this tool will be very handy indeed.

Updated: I just figured out that Windows live also just introduces faces search at July 27. (See their official blog). Thanks garyprice for the info.

To use new feature in Windows Live image search, try these:

1.without the new features – jimi hendrix
2.with new face filtering on – jimi hendrix filter:face
3.with new portrait filtering on – jimi hendrix filter:portrait
4.with new black and white filtering on – jimi hendrix filter:bw

Currently, this Window Live feature is only available by adding the following filter after the image search queries,
filter:face, filter:portrait, or filter:bw. Microsoft may make these features accessible through a drop-down menu or maybe radio button (just like Google) soon.

Microsoft has also provide you Related People feature on the right side of the screen. Try it! You will be amazed by the new technology of the world's two giants companies.
