Hey Philipp, i noticed you credited me as "Danny" and i think you did this on another post as well, but on other posts you used DPic (as i go by here on the forum). Does that make a difference (like on the top sources)? http://blogoscoped.com/credits/

Did you notice that you can drag and drop the news timeline? Interesting what you can do these days in html/css/js.

Does "Google Similar Images" use the "content" of the pics to gather them?
Many says no – context only – but a Google engineer claims that this is wrong. There is a video but I don't understand the answers of that woman...

(Dpic, sometimes I "merge" different names for the Top Credits page. But I've also started to name only first names recently, so I might need to find another way to compile that sources page in the future...)

[put at-character here]Tom
Judging by the conversation in Google's video, I am going to say that it's by content and context. ("So that I can find picture with Brad on the left, and Brad on the right")

I wrote a quick Greasemonkey script for includes links to Google Similar Images search on Google Images Search's result pages. The downside of the script is that it includes links below each and every single image's description, even if they don't have "similar images."

I think many people are going to disallow google bot to access their image directories in fear of warning letters...
