Apparently, it runs a background process looking for faces in all the image files it can find on the computer. You can look at these faces and put names on them. Here&#8217;s the neat part: put a name to a face and it&#8217;ll aggregate a bunch of faces it thinks are the same person which you can then confirm, and it uses that to aggregate even more faces it thinks are the same person. In a couple minutes, I had 300+ Izzy faces, 100 or so Becky faces, etc. It was even able to identify Stephen&#8217;s face with and without his beard! Click a face and it&#8217;ll display the photo it&#8217;s from. Any faces it presents that you don&#8217;t want to keep track of, you can tell it to disregard; such as cartoon faces, faces of presidents, etc. It has located a bunch of pictures I didn&#8217;t even know I had, since it doesn&#8217;t limit itself to just your regular image directories. Anyway, I thought this was pretty cool and worth mentioning in case people didn&#8217;t know about this feature.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>While recently using Google&#8217;s photo program, Picasa, I noticed it was putting together a collection of faces.
