This is such a cool site. A friend showed it to me and it analyzes your photo to see which celebrities you look like. Even though it doesn't seem accurate, it's still pretty interesting.

    Sounds like a cool site, however would you seriously feel safe uploading your pic to some website who could be operated by just about anybody? I mean, I already feel uncomfortable letting Laser Planet take my pic for my Laser Planet account.

    Honestly, this is the 21st century. If someone wants a picture of me, they can go on facebook and look me up. If I didn't have facebook, they could go look up my address and phone number in public directories and track me down in person. Or maybe they could look up what high school or university I went to and get a photo through there. It's the information age, and you can't hide from it. The internet is no longer about hiding your face from the world. It's about saying "hey, world, this is me .. and I look like Tre Cool".

    There's no reason to be worried about uploading your picture. Besides, it's anonymous. You don't even have to give your name.

    And even if it wasn't, would it really be the end of the world?

    There, that was my anti-tinfoil-hat rant for the day.
