Coke Zero has just launched Facial Profiler Recruit App. This application takes all your tagged photos on facebook, and uploads them to be analyzed for possible matches, people who look like you, scary, I know. You can find this application on http://apps.facebook.com/facialprofiler, or http://beta.facialprofiler.com
Quoted from the Fan Page for the Application
When it comes to taste, Coke Zero is a lot like Coke. Join the Facial Profiler Project to find out if there?s someone out there who?s a lot like you. The Facial Profiler uses next-gen facial recognition technology to analyze your face and then match it against faces from all over the world. How you use that information, well that?s up to you.

Okay, this sucks. So you go through the Facial Profiler App, but it doesn’t show you any matches, what the hell is this? Just wan’t to take my pictures?
Terrible App!
The more people who upload, the more chances you have of finding your clone.. and destroying what was left of the gen farm incident..
Wow great phising scam.
People need to be more aware of the dangers of getting third-party facebook applications which are vaguely disguised attempts at data mining your information (and now your pictures and pictures containing your friends!).

be weary, even if it’s such a large corporation. If the application isn’t giving you the advertised results (FFS, it’s an advertisement itself) than it’s most likely just a viral marketing campaign that will never deliver. Save yourself the trouble.
My friend invited this app. few years ago. To find your twin or alterego in the world. We were think about this and realized this is dangerous because if a criminal want to find an other identification it is very easy to take yours. My friend is christian, me as well and we decided we will not do it. ( it is a simple face detection software, and if you find you twin or alterego the match is just 89- 99 % perfect.) It is very interesting from a big company to use this app. just to sell more products make more money. To be onest we wanted the same but not in this way…………
