Using Google Image search for OkCupid Profile Images

  1. Suppose you like some one on OKCupid. Click to navigate to photos.
  2. Click Save as to save the webpage completely. All Images are now in a folder on your laptop
  3. Use Google Image Search Upload to one by one . The biggest privacy drawback, Google Image search doesn’t find Instagram or Twitter  or Facebook or LinkedIn profile images so well, but does it extremely well for Google Plus Profile Image. Lolcat!
  4. Solution- have two sets of photos that make you look good, one for  friends, other for OKCupid or other online dating shenanigans!

faceoffI interview Stephen, awesome Face Recognition hacker here, and I think his solution is the best for privacy- use a robots.txt equivalent for images, just as you use it for websites.

I hope they find a solution, in time for wearable computing to take off properly.

In the meantime, I am telling people on OK Cupid that I am a fortune teller. It is really working awesome!
