Facebook Scoops Up Face.com For $55-60M To Bolster Its Facial Recognition Tech (Updated) | TechCrunch

Facebook Scoops Up Face.com For $55-60M To Bolster Its Facial Recognition Tech (Updated) | TechCrunch: "Facebook could create some sort of API or otherwise allow app developers to build in Face.com’s facial recognition…as long as they integrated with Facebook and let users share content back to it.

The $1 billion Instagram purchase made it obvious that Facebook sees mobile photos and the communities that share them as critical to its future. Once that acquisition closes, Facebook could even port Face.com’s facial recognition to Instagram."
