OK, I have to switch to Linux now...

Playing around with a facial recognition site, and it matched my picture with that of a famous person.

Guess who it picked?

According to that site, I don't look like anybody. I guess that's okay %)

The link takes me to a page with your photo on it. So... it matched you to yourself? I think I'm missing something here...?

Weird. The link is supposed to take you to the results page, where it matched me with Linus Torvald.

Ah, I can see it now! Cool, a 65% probability. Hm... testing myself, I see I have a 62% probability of being related to Gary Lineker (who's he?) and a 60% probability of being related to Kate Winslet.

I think I'll forebear on the 'separated at birth' commentary, though... ;)

Whoa! But I will add that Kate Winslet was born on the same day I was: October 5th. Cool! ;)

Footballer. Something of a World Cup legend.

Aha! Found him in wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Lineker).
