Mashing up Visual Search and Shopping

My friend Nikhil (alias:kholu) works for this startup company in visual search and face recognition called Riya. Pretty neat idea about maintaining and searching photos based on faces in the photo. I did not like the fact that face recognition works only within my riya album and does not work globally..but thats just too hard a problem to solve..

Necase, the reason I am writing this post is because of their new venture called like.com...pretty amazing how these guys mashed the idea of visual search and shopping. I think this is the killer in the next generation of online shopping. People love celebrities and people love buying what their celebrities are wearing...Check it out..its pretty sweet!

Also, amazon.com started a new venture to sell shoes, handbags etc..Endless.com. Its all coming down to online shopping for the girls!
