MY HERITAGE.

We've been having tons o' fun with website My Heritage this week. Although still in Beta they're letting people check out their 'cutting edge' face recognition software and the results are pretty entertaining.

Basically you upload a photo of any individual, then their software scans the face discerning certain strong features and comparing the results to its database of over 3000 famous people. It then gives you a list (with photos) of the top five that the photo you gave most resembles, along with percentages showing how close the resemblance is.

Overall some recognisable similarity is pretty much always present, although sometimes the choices are pretty unexpected... In the future they're going to use this software to scan all photos posted to the site, recognising who knows who by which photos they're in. Big brother is watching you.

Obviously we have to subject the site to a 707 test, so we'll be uploading shots of 707 crew and friends and posting the results... The first few are below... Don't laugh, you could be next.

74% similarity to Dynasty star Joan Collins

AND 60% similarity to Harry Potter's buddy Rupert Grint?

57% similarity to Australian PM John Howard

72% similarity to film legend Orson Welles
