interesting.

Imagine a world where you can upload your copyrighted material to Google and it tells you everywhere it (or something very similar to it) appears on the web.

I'm sure this site doesn't have as far of a reach as Google, but interesting concept: http://www.tineye.com/

Thats the site I saw here awhile ago but couldn't remember.

I just ran some random istockphoto images that I have on my computer and it found a few instances out there. When it did return results, what I saw was interesting indeed.

Their spider just needs to catch up to the entire web. That isn't going to happen unless someone throws some MAJOR money behind them for the bazillion servers that would require.

Great technology though! That would be a perfect takeover target for Google if they ever wanted to get into doing that kind of stuff...
