Wow, really? My rough guess was a day off of being dead on? I'm awesome.

It's been around for a while.

If you click the camera icon in the search bar, you can enter an image URL instead of uploading one.

Wow, this is old news, guess you guys don't even know about voice search on the desktop : http://goo.gl/muLG1 Google is like the mythical hydra, only it's real!

Won't this kill off services such as TinEye? From what I gather, this feature pretty much is exactly the service they provide; it's not unreasonable to think Google can pull it off better with their resources.

This is a fantastic feature, especially to discover in what place a photo has been taken etc.

Now you can get funny results when putting face pictures.
