Suppose you are having an image of a person that you don't know, but want to know about. Before your friends can help you to identify that, you can have a try here, with the Search giant Google.

Generally people search images by typing relevant text, and then look for results. But you can do reverse also. Google Image Search have the capability of finding other similar matching images of an image that you supply. This can also help you to find out content related to that particular picture across the Web with a click.

Go to images.google.com and click the camera icon placed at extreme right of the search box.
