Face recognition and fast People tagging in Windows Live Photo Gallery
I find it hard to believe that no one, not even MS, has stepped up to the plate to offer something that Apple has been offering for a while now in iPhoto.
The current implementation of "face tagging" in WLPG is no different than plain tagging, except that it will identify faces and place a name with the face. As has been mentioned a number of times, WLPG should "learn" and actually recognize these faces and then provide some kind of functionality to automatically tag all the photos from an event/folder AND with the option to auto-tag the whole library of photos.
Its precisely this lack of any kind of automatic tagging that has stopped me from dedicating myself to any photo management application. I think it would be the killer feature for WLPG if it were implemented correctly.
