Google Image Search adds search by style feature
Saturday, December 20, 2008

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.
