whoever the hell she is.
myheritage.com is a cool-ish new (new to me, anyway) geneaology website that has face-recognition software that, i suppose, is supposed to be useful in tracking down just who the hell that person in the back of that old photo is, or something.
but to attract mass amounts of users of the interweb, they let you upload a picture and they compare it to a database of celebrities, so that you know which famous person you resemble.
hypothetically speaking.
i do not look like anita mui. but, having read the title of this blog entry, you already know that.
i also do not look like dolph lundgren. or mustafa sandal, or kareena kapoor, if you ask me.
but i didn’t ask me. i asked myheritage.com–which is, if you ask me, sorely in need of an upgrade to their facial recognition software.
i guess the theory is that, as people upload and compare pictures, the software learns and gets better or something. i certainly hope, though, that some poor schlub doesn’t get told that he looks like jamie howard, queerspace.com’s famous webmaster.
nice try, myheritage. but no cigar from me.
