After a couple of months, I think I am quite comfortable with them now; they each reveal a different facet of me. Anyway, thank you for your post. Regards, Rachel Hi Owen,

]]> Comment on Overly Social Technology? by Jack Hoge http://www.owenbrunette.com/new_york/overly-social-technology/comment-page-1/#comment-30 Jack Hoge Sat, 03 Jan 2009 01:57:56 +0000 http://www.owenbrunette.com/?p=164#comment-30 I agree completely -- I think social media is getting ahead of itself, growing larger and larger without stopping to ask itself, "Am I useful?" StockTwits and TrialX both look very promising. In fact, StockTwits is the first Twitter site/app I could actually see myself using...well, besides Twitter. :-) I agree completely — I think social media is getting ahead of itself, growing larger and larger without stopping to ask itself, “Am I useful?” StockTwits and TrialX both look very promising.

]]> Comment on Visual Search That Actually Works: TinEye by Leila Boujnane http://www.owenbrunette.com/toys/visual-search-that-actually-works-tineye/comment-page-1/#comment-3 Leila Boujnane Sun, 24 Aug 2008 15:29:17 +0000 http://www.owenbrunette.com/?p=87#comment-3 Hi Owen, Thanks for giving TinEye a try. You are correct: we compare your search image to our entire index (currently just over 700 million images - but we're growing it) to retrieve image matches for you. We create a fingerprint for all the images in our index: what this means is that each image in our index is processed with our image recognition technology to create a fingerprint that takes into consideration the image's unique patterns. This allows us to retrieve matches for your image search even if the image has been cropped, modified, compressed or is in different formats. We don't look at the metadata of a file but only at the patterns in the image. Thanks for giving TinEye a spin. Leila Boujnane, CEO, Idee Inc Hi Owen,
