It looks like Google is catching up with Yahoo!'s Flickr and has come up with a fairly simple way to improve image search results through image labeling. Google recently launched Google Image Labeler, an image labeling game which is based on ESP Game by Luis von Ahn, that picks two random players who will label or tag an image. The idea is for both players to input as many labels as possible describing a given image pulled from the web. If you see a picture of a bird and both label it as bird, the next image will be shown automatically and you can continue until your time has run out. Players can earn points with every matched labels. I just dont know what those earned points for though. If you're not doing anything, you might want to play the game for a while and help google improve its image search result which in turn will help searchers like us.

I think im addicted to this game even if i dont really know that my opponent is a real person or not. But i think they real.. Its fun to guess different image label. Racing with your opponent from the other side of the country. I think you guys should try to play this game and as you help also google to improve the relevance of image search results so that you and other Google users can quickly and easily find the results you’re looking for. You can challenge me there kojak is my username. See you there..
Although it seems simple, there seems to be some academic underpinnings. Google aquired another company that has very similar technologies even broader in scope than facial recognition.
Looks like your leading the game!
Have a question on pinging? Arent Ping-o-matic automatically announces your blog to the world?
or you have to manually add each site on your wordpress?
Good luck on getting to the number one spot for the word “Isulong Seoph”

Im not really sure if it automatically announces your blog to most of the ping services. But you can do that from their home site where you can choose what services to ping. What I did is I collected a lists of Ping URLs and configured them here on my wordpress blog.
Google seems to stable, ayaw gumalay kahit anong entry.
Looks like it’s in the bag for you already. But things can still change. But it seems panalo ka na. Congrats. Goodluck.

The “isulong seoph” SERP for google.com.ph seems stable but the number of search results still keeps on changing. Sometimes its above or below 900,000. Pero i know anything can still happen. Goodluck to all of us.
