Posted on: Tuesday, 1 July 2008, 15:00 CDT
PETERBOROUGH, Ontario, July 1 /PRNewswire/ -- How many times has someone said they saw a person who looks just like you? Haven't you always wondered how much that person really looks like you? Actor Richard Gere found his look-alike while filming "Shall We Dance?" in Japan. It just happened to be the Japanese Prime Minister Junichiro Koizumi. This story was the inspiration behind the newly-launched social network iLookLikeYou.com. Now, thanks to advances in facial recognition technology (FRT) and the popularity of social networking, iLookLikeYou.com can help you find your look-alike too.

ILookLikeYou.com is a free social network where users upload a front-facing photo to be matched against other photos in its global community. A column of top 10 look-alikes is displayed along with your match percentage. Members can choose which look-alikes they like best, then display them on their profile page for others to see. Alternate photos can also be uploaded into their personal photo gallery. These photos can help other members decide how much of a look-alike you really are. After members have found look-alikes, the benefits of a social network kick in. Members can choose to blog about their experience in finding a twin, participate in forums, contact friends or interact with other members.
The network was created to find look-alikes around the world but attention is now being drawn to its potential for finding identical twins separated at birth as well as missing people. With the exponential growth of social networking and FRT's innate ability for finding identical matches, it is really only a matter of time. Missing persons can be added to iLookLikeYou.com as easily as a new member.
The founders of iLookLikeYou.com, Wayne Adam and Kirk Johnson, both from Ontario, Canada, have created the network with member privacy in mind. The site only requires a username and an email address to join. It is very difficult for anyone to find a member if they do not have an exact username as their search feature will only pull up exact usernames and does not search for members by email addresses. Any other information you add is up to you.
Joining iLookLikeYou.com is fast and easy. Your search is over with the click of a button. With all the fun, ease of use, and security taken care of, make sure you drop by and give iLookLikeYou.com a try.
