Well I didn't know, but noticed him up there too. Looks like a friend of mine in that pic:

Anyway, a little detective work tells me that's Joe Trohman from "Fall Out Boy". Note the tattoos:

And in case anyone wonders about the guitar, it looks like a 2012 American Standard Telecaster in Jade Green Metallic.
:D

Here's how I found out who was in the pic:

1. Download a copy of the picture to your desktop

2. Open Google and go to Images

3. Click on the Search by image icon (looks like a camera)

Image

NOTE: You must be using Google's Chrome browser or Firefox browser to see the camera button! (some other browsers may work, but in Internet Explorer, you won't even see the button!)

4. Click Upload an image and browse to the file you downloaded

Image

Google will search for that pic or anything visually similar (combination of shapes and colors). Pretty cool.

If it's an image on the web, you don't really need to download it first. You can instead just point Google to the URL of the image (In Firefox, you can get the URL-by right-clicking and choose "Copy image location" instead of saving the image - other browsers may differ.)

Or, you can simply drag an image into the Google Image Search box from another web page. :D

Also, if uploading to Google Image Search, be careful about private images. Google and anyone with their tentacles into Google will get it, along with your browser fingerprint, IP and other info. In case of private photos of other people, the question isn't just whether you trust Google, but whether those people also trust Google and are fine with you publishing it.
I know, I'm an old fogey and concerned about privacy and privacy rights. You young people might not see it as a problem...

That is good information I'll do the google image thing.

I hate what's happened to the web, in the early 90's you could maintain a private footprint, no more. now every site and browser captures all your data. I don't use a smartphone If I search the web it's on my pc. The privacy of the smartphone is really bad, (Win 8 included) all the apps, every one, asks for access to your location , your contacts, everything and people just push the accept button. Sadly it's inescapable you have no privacy, I just pray some entity does not decide to take control.

Weirdly enough , our street name over here in Turkey is wrong on every map I have come across

All the maps , Google street view/Yandex (the Turkish one) all say Coban Koyu Cadessi when it had it's name changed when the local council cocked up and surfaced the wrong road

Anyway, yesterday I was looking up a local business and thought I'd see if "Directions" worked on the map ....as I started to type, it asked if I wanted to share my location, so I said yes, lo and behold, it put in the exact correct address including the area code

BTW does anybody else think the pictures are a pain, having to scroll down half a page every time you go on a subject .............if you must have them at least change them every so often and give us decent pics
