Technology - Google debates face recognition technology
Google executives are wrestling over whether to launch controversial facial recognition technology after a barrage of criticism over its privacy policies.

Glastonbury: Are you in the world's most tagged photograph?
Now you've had a week to shake off your Glastonbury hangover, you might want to try tagging yourself on this giant, panoramic photo of the Pyramid stage field at half time during the England vs Slovenia game. Orange has been trying to create a world record for the most tagged people in an online photo, and 5,576 people have tagged themselves or their friends so far. But there were more like 70,000 in the field at that time, so there are plenty more to do. The pic itself is a 1.3 gigapixel, 75,000 pixel-wide image compiled from 36 photos that took one minute to capture. They used two Hasselblad H4D-50 cameras with 50 megapixel digital backs and, camera geeks, a 150mm lens on top and 100mm lens tilt shift adapter. Both cameras were mounted vertically on a tripod and rotated at 10 degree increments to take the pictures.
