Make sure you have your masks and makeup handy if you want to keep your online profile separate from your person.
From CNET:
Soon your face could be your calling card. An upcoming app for
Android,
iOS, and Google Glass called NameTag will allow you to photograph
strangers and find out who they are -- complete with social networking
and online dating profiles.
Spot someone out and about that you want to identify, and you
can capture their face using your device's camera. The app will send the
photo wirelessly to NameTag's server, where it will compare the photo
to millions of online records and return with a name, more photos, and
social-media profiles, such as Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, where
the person (or their friends) might have publicly posted photos of
themselves.
And, if you're interested in that person in a more-than-passing
fashion, the app's creator -- FacialNetwork -- is working on technology
that will allow scanning of profile pictures on online dating sites,
such as Plenty of Fish, OKCupid, and Match.com.
