I am writing a long post about robots since I am thinking about TinEye’s branding and I came across Michael Salter’s styrofoam robot and I remembered seeing it in the San Jose Museum of Art last month and being completely amazed. I would love to build one. I think I am going to build one except it will be a Wild Styrobot (wild animal robot?). This video chronicles Salter and his team...
The Everywhere Girl is truly loved by everyone!
As most of you know I track the Everywhere Girl appearances and when I have time I even update my blog post. Today this is a quick post as I just used TinEye and landed on the Microsoft Finland page with you guessed it…the Everywhere Girl on the home page. If you are not familiar with the Everywhere Girl, start your adventures here and here.

TinEye’s robot adventures
Thinking about TinEye and robots I came across Bryan Partington’s robots in a cup. How awesome! I think you are going to be seeing a lot of robots on the Idée blog…
TinEye Podcast
I had a great time talking with Jim Goldstein about TinEye and his podcast is now available for your listening. Jim Goldstein is a stunning independent photographer who has photographed some of my favourite locations in the world including Point Reyes. I am in California next week and I will be running here. If you have any questions about the podcast: I am listening at lboujnane (@) ideeinc.com...
Alistair from Peapod designs a little TinEye for us!
Our bon ami, branding and web designer Alistair Morton from Peapod Studios, sent us some very fun TinEye graphics and we just love them Alistair, you rock! As most of you know the Ideeplex is fond of robots (and candies).
Little TinEye icon
Oh it is nice to have friends! I would know: Eamonn Murphy just made me a little TinEye icon for TinEye on Twitter. The robot icon will be next, in the meantime drop by Twitter and follow me! I am now iconified!
Spot the iPhone!
Over a year ago Jason Kottke photoshopped a Windows desktop onto an iPhone and posted it on his very popular blog. Yesterday it was spotted on an Australian TV news show. Today, I used TinEye to see if indeed this wonderful photoshopped iPhone (I mean who would not want an iPhone running Windows XP) could be spotted anywhere else. And you guessed it: this little image is famous! The iPhone...
Big Index! Getting Bigger…
Indices…That’s what dreams are made of! Our TinEye search index is approaching 500,000,000 images; that’s half a billion folks!

Half a billion may sound like a lot, doesn’t it? Well, it is really just the beginning and that’s a tiny portion of all the images online today.
Everywhere Girl
I just stumbled upon Joey Coleman’s write up on MacLeans.ca about the Everywhere Girl and his reference to my blogpost about her. I wish I had seen his University of Manitoba blog post from 2005! Nice addition to our Everywhere Girl tracking. I haven’t seen her lately in our image identification reports since our book cover findings. I wonder if she has ever been used on a cover of a...
