Guys,

I had three ideas I wanted to run by you guys for feedback on as photographers. I�m thinking about building some cool machine learning products. Here are the ideas. Please let me know if these would be something you maybe interested in. Any feedback would be amazing. I think some of these tools could be pretty cool. Any feedback from photographers out there?


1. Graduation Photo Organizing Tool

Idea is if a graduation photographer has a bunch of photos, they may take a lot of time to sort them (by name). Here are some relevant links below. Use facial recognition to auto-tag them by the event.

2. Sports Photography Tool

Idea is if a sports photographer has a bunch of photos, organize them by player name. Relevant Links below:

3. Auto-tagging. Automatically generate high-quality tags. I know this has been discussed a lot recently, but wanted to throw it out there still. Link below

Anyone tired of having to sell stock on one site, building a portfolio on another, and socializing on another network? Shouldn't there just be one integrated platform, that does all of these things? Why doesn't Flickr do stock or iStock make a social network?
