TinEye

Posted by John Dalziel on Tuesday, June 8, 2010 Under: Search Engine

TinEye is a reverse image search engine.

Users can upload an image to TinEye to...

find out where it came from;
how it is being used;
if modified versions of the image exist; or
find higher resolution versions

TinEye claims to be the first image search engine on the web to use image identification technology rather than keywords, metadata or watermarks; it is free to use for non-commercial searching.

Visit http://www.tineye.com/ to try it out.

About Me

John Dalziel

Liverpool

I'm an eLearning Adviser specializing in stimulating and supporting innovation in learning via eBooks, eMagazines, blogs (including audio versions), online TV, interactive resources, forums, workshops, conferences and face2face consultations. Evaluating and becoming familiar with sustainable and new technologies allows me to respond to the needs of learning providers from a position of experience rather than 'hearsay'. Supported learning providers, in the northwest of England (UK), can contact me for FREE consultations. Based at Lancaster University I work for the JISC Regional Support Centre - Northwest.
