It kind of creeps me out though. How does it know your name goes with your face if you haven't tagged them?
That is what creeped me out at first too - that my photos would be "out there..." hubby said that the photos are safe. You do have to tell the name to the face and then based on algorithms, it matches photos to that face... I haven't done that yet. I'm still storing on my EHD... I don't have total faith that Google here today, gone tomorrow... haha!
