Face.com's Facebook App Uses Facial Recognition to Identify Untagged Friends

Untagged Photos of You on Facebook? Face.com Will Find You

Remember that time I reminded you to tag yourself on Facebook and many of you said that you often deliberately did not tag yourself, or sometimes even untagged yourself?

Well, a new Facebook app by Face.com uses face-recognition technology to identify photos of your contacts on Facebook.

It searches tagged and untagged photos, which is cool if you're the one looking, but if you've ever untagged an embarrassing photo of yourself that one of your friends has posted, your contacts will be able to find it and see it using this app.

Hopefully there aren't too many blackmail-worthy photos of you online!
