Google have just introduced two new ‘Google Labs’ apps to the public. The first, Similar Images which does exactly as it says on the tin, finds images similar to any image you’ve selected. Enter something you’re looking for then click ’similar images’ under the image you’d like to find similar images for. Currently, there doesn’t seem to be a way to upload images from your desktop – hopefully a ‘coming soon’ feature.

The commercial web is about as 5000 days old. Despite its relatively short existence it changed our life, the way we communicate and how we do business. And there’s a lot more to come.

Every once and a while something special occurs on the web and spreads like fire over the web. Dipity is a service that lets you make a timeline of anything. One of their users (BG K) created a timeline with all internet memes.

Great stuff. Do you remember ‘dancing baby‘ in October 1996? Or Rick Rolled (easy one) in 2007?
