There was a startup several years ago that was planning to come out with a toolbar that would recognise and tag any people who appeared in photos on the current web page you were viewing. It initially required manual tagging by users but as it saw more photos of a each person it got better at automatically identifying new images of them.

Very cool technology, but quite a creepy use of it. Imagine what it might recognise and tag (with a real name) on a paysite or TGP gallery?
