Wednesday Web of the Week: Google Image Swirl

Web Address: http://image-swirl.googlelabs.com/


When you are searching for just the right images, sometimes what you want is the ability to look for more pictures like the one you have found.  Whether it's a specific kind of fault or images of Jim Crow era segregation, Google's image search is a big help.  Well currently in the works is Image Swirl from Google.  Google has a 'labs' section where they preview new ideas they are working on and the image swirl tool works like Visual Thesaraus or like a Concept Map.  You pick one image and related or similar images are show around it.

Give it a try.  See what you get.

Welcome to Jorgie Learning

I really am learning and this blog is maintained both as a record of some of what I am doing as well as a place for me to train and teach others about creating an online presence. So please don't mind the dust. We aren't remodeling we are learning!

Visit some of my other blogs or the other blogs I find mildly entertaining for a more polished feel.
