Image Swirl – Find Specific Images On The Web Faster With Google
As a Tech ‘n’ Life writer, I have to search for images regularly. In one month alone, I have added 300+ pictures and images to Tech ‘n’ Life posts. There is one tool I use for this – Google Images. If you have not used it, it’s like regular Google search, but instead of websites, you get related images.
It works extremely well. This is what Google Image Search normally looks like:
Click for larger view
They have just announce Image Swirl which brings this to a new level. It works off the same idea, but displays the results more effectively. It displays specific types of images that match you search:
A Search For Washington Returns This
When you click on one image to get more that look similar:
Similar Images To The One Clicked
Do you think it is something you will use?

OKAY, honestly, that wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. In fact, a lot of websites made out that moving from one server type to another was very difficult. I moved from an IIS Windows server to a Linux based server and did it in 4 steps. I just have some last bits
