My Heritage - Photo Tagging Feature
My Heritage the online collaborative family tree building site has introduced a new feature that many people will love called photo tagging.
It allows you to take all the photos you have uploaded into your online family tree and identify the faces and tag them with names. This new feature will really benefit you by not having to tag each and every face in a photo as well as doing automatic grouping and in the case of any older photos you may have, it may identify faces that you are not quite sure of if you have identified them in another photo.
It appears they are using face recognition software which is a very advanced technology not previously available to you and I in the past. I can see many people using this just to upload old photos in their family trees just to try to identify those people in group shots.
I am really excited they have offered this new technology and cant wait to see how many people that I couldn’t previously identify now have a name!
