Polarbot is here!

Wednesday, September 17th, 2008

Thanks to Tomek, Tomek, Mikael and the rest of our team, we can finally show off something we have been playing with internally for some time.
Our Polarbot is here!


Polarbot example


Polarbot is a little script that looks for unnamed people in photos we find across the web and checks against named near-duplicates. This means that we can now spread the names contributed by our users to more photos, thus making more stuff searchable and more information available when browsing with the plugin.


We have more ways of spreading the data and increasing our reach planned, stay tuned and do check in on our Polarbot from time to time to see what he is up to.
