Whose face is this?

Oh Facebook, just when I didn’t think you could get any better at encouraging interaction on your site:

Facebook: Whose face is this?

Face recognition. Finding faces that aren’t already tagged. Presenting them, ready-to-tag, to the owner. This is pure genius for getting people to participate.

I saw this, the only problem i had was when the face of my, newly, ex- girlfriend.

You’d think with all the information Facebook has, they’d be able to maybe not do that. I didn’t much appreciate it.
