For Chrome users this is even easier:

(The plugin also includes a screenshot app that allows direct upload to Picasa)

Oh my, never knew Google has this facility. This is nice! Thanks Prophet!
I know where we we can use this kind of amazing stuff! *coughTARcoughgamescoughcoughcough*

theschnauzers:
Facebook is using this Google tool to help its users identify people in photos that they post.  (It is in fact how I found out about TAR 6's Kris and Jon's wedding  a couple of months back because they were identified by their Facebook user name!)

Prophet:
LOL @ Calphin <3

I have used Tineye and it struggles a lot. Google is the only one that does the visually similar feature.

Slowhatch:
Google maps now offers a bird's-eye view of your route: just click the 3D button if you have Google Earth enabled in your browser (here is the route from the airport to Ximen station).

Slowhatch:
For next season: simultaneous social search.
