[Download Squad] 1 New Entry: Google Image Search adds search by style feature

Google Image Search adds search by style feature

Filed under: Google, Search

You know that feeling you got the first time you realized you could search for images on the internet using Google Image Search? You know, the one that made you waste three hours of your day looking for pictures of yourself, your friends, that kid you went to school with that you always had a crush on but never worked up the courage to talk to. Yeah, well now you can look for them in clip art form.

Google has added a new search by style feature to its Image Search page. You can search for pictures from news items, pictures with faces, clip art, line drawings, or photos.

For some items, like "Apple" the results are impressive. If you click faces, you get pictures of Steve Jobs. If you click clip art or line drawings, you get cartoon-like images of apples. But some queries return funnier results. For example, a clip art search for "juice" returns plenty of drawings of juice boxes and glasses of juice. But when you click on the news content tab you find pictures of OJ Simpson, among other things.
