Thanks Marco. For me this was always the joy of Asian Sirens - the sort of great but obscure Asian model stuff that only the original Google master could find!

Thanks Lee but that's too much honour for me. I'm just a little bit faster than most other people I guess. Within a few years everyone knows how to use the search engines to get what they want.

FYI, I'm already working with the next generation of search tools (blog, rss and multi media search engines for example). Internet is becoming even more fascinating than it already was!

It is true that I am able to track this sort of thing down too (as I have done for my posts), but you seem to be able to do it in your sleep! ;-)

What is a multi media search engine?


Posted by: Robin Hood on Oct 15, 05 | 1:37 pm

You can submit a picture and the search engine is looking for similar pictures. Same with audio and video. The results are not good enough yet but that is a matter of time. It's really amazing what they have achied yet already.

Wow, sounds like A.I.! Do you have a URL?

Robin, there are many projects going on so how many links do you want? For pictures it is called Content-based image retrieval (CBIR). Just have a look at:

I've done some reaserch on this subject almost 15 years ago when I was working on systems to sort plastics in real-time. I guess you can use it for babes as well ;-)
