Google Images Adds Millions of Historic TIME Magazine Photos

by 5

One thing that upsets me about Google Images is the fact that it's sometimes difficult to find older photos — hey, the Internet is only 39 years old. Google is trying to change this by hosting millions of photos from the LIFE photo archive from the 1950s and onward. Search various categories like people, places, events, sports, and culture or add "source:life" to any Google image search to only search the LIFE photo archive. I did this with Marilyn Monroe and these were the results I got — magical, right?!

Omigosh, KadBunny, that's hilarious. This is nice. And it's reminding me that I still want to scan old family pics so I always have copies even if anything happens to the originals.

Oh yay! Haha that annoys me too :( I mean as we speak: if you were to put in something like "marilyn monroe old picture" you'd get stuff like this http://www.mediabistro.com/unbeige/original/old%20marilyn%20by%20erik%20ravelo.jpg :p
