MyHeritage Boasts Facial Recognition

by David Heyerman on September 9, 2008

  • The family based social network, MyHeritage, just announced the addition of facial recognition software.
  • This software automatically tags photos of family members as they are uploaded.
  • All it takes is one normal profile pic for the tagging to work.
  • MyHeritage competes with sites like Geni and has acquired a global total of 25 million users.
  • A great tool for sharing photos and other content within your family as well as creating family trees.

When will Geni announce a similar technology?
