Have you tried Image REcognition software?

jgoo's recent question Does This Escort's Pic Look Familiar?

 

 

got me wondering, does image recognition software really work? Has anyone here tried it? Can you reverse search an image such as the guy in jgoo's post?

 

I located this one software site, but haven't tried it to see if it works in a case like this one.

http://images.Google.com also lets you search.

Very interesting. When I put in the URL of the pic on the guy I am wondering about it showed a couple ads from various cities. Although still no indication of the original source of the pic, it is a good tool and i will ad this to my investigative kit when someone of interest comes up. I learned something new today, always a good thing.
