Forget about an MBA in Silicon Valley.
Google buy the other photo recognition company - Neven, and here is a classic Silicon Valley interpretation of the deal from Riya's founder (who had been thru due diligence with google a year ago) : "It means we now have tangential competition but not yet direct since with Riya 2.0 we are focusing not on personal search but on webwide similarity search."
Tags : tangential, webwide, similarity, search, competition.
Googleblog : "Neven Vision comes to Google with deep technology and expertise around automatically extracting information from a photo. It could be as simple as detecting whether or not a photo contains a person, or, one day, as complex as recognizing people, places, and objects. This technology just may make it a lot easier for you to organize and find the photos you care about."
