Photo database

Hyperlinking related photos is a huge idea!

However, I can see this kind of technology being married with facial recognition software, and used by organisations (of legitimate or questionable intent) to track the movement of people in the world, providing an archive of who was where (and with who) at any given time - all thanks to people who innocently post their vacation pictures. So much for privacy! :-S (At least there's a plethora of photo-shopped images to obfuscate such historical records and create a doubt in legitimate courts at least...)

Anyway, we all know this is really being developed for the adult-entertainment industry, the real driving force behind the internet! ;-)
