feature of Google Search

NEW AND EXCITEMENT SITE:Google Image Labeler, a feature of Google Search that allows you to label images and help improve the quality of Google's image search results.


How does it work?

You'll be randomly paired with a partner who's online and using the feature. Over a two-minute period, you and your partner will:
View the same set of images.
Provide as many labels as possible to describe each image you see.
Receive points when your label matches your partner's label. The number of points will depend on how specific your label is.
See more images until time runs out.


Tips:
You may click the "pass" button if you can't think of any more labels for an image. If you and your partner both click "pass," you'll see the next image but receive no points for the passed image
You'll receive more points for matches with more descriptive labels. For example, this image can be described by the labels: sky (50 points), bird (60 points), soaring (120 points), or frigate bird (150 points).

What do you need to participate?

Just an interest in helping Google improve the relevance of image search for users like yourself. If you log in to your Google account, we will keep track of your points for you. You may also enter a nickname, but we do not require either a nickname or a login to use Google Image Labeler.
