  I don't get the title... I know what it is (it was mentioned on the other topic about face.com shutting down free API), but the title of this submission doesn't make any sense to me. I read it maybe five times and still can't understand what it means.

    I've been staring at it for a while and the best I can do is: 'Face.com: Free "Detect Faces in Pictures" Alternative', which is still a barely-syntactical Markov chain of press release words.

      +1, but I can't change it now

    My idea is launch a SaaS face detection like face.com forking the OpenCV code initially. better now?

  Is this just for face detection or for face recognition as well? Face detection is a pretty much solved problem IMO and running OpenCV locally is a simple enough solution. What I will miss about face.com is the face recognition. It was state of the art, lightning fast, and free. The eigenfaces implementation in OpenCV doesn't even come close.
