Google Face Finder. Is this new?

I've just found out about the trick when searching images through Google.
Add &imgtype=face at the end of your image search link and it is going to return only pictures with faces It does work very good, great "face recognition" software.

Example
http://images.google.com/images?q=Bill+Gates&imgtype=face&ndsp=18&svnum=10&um=1&hl=en&start=36&sa=N

 

it's main aim of google image search. i think it's not a new think

 

I'm not really that impressed...

 

I think it is pretty cool

 

I think it is interesting

 

nice find, I wasn't aware of it before. Quite impressive.

 

yes, google actually has many cool search type secrets well not secrets but something that has been out for a long time, just the power of google

 

searching for images in google is not something new.

Nice find,seeing it for first time.

 

Google did acquire Neven Vision, an image recognition company.
