Stalking Using Google Images

Have you ever saw someone for the first time and you are literally dying to know that person's name? Because I do!

Stalking is not really good. I know. But unfortunately, your mind is telling no. Because you got all the time in the world and you want that person's name so bad, why not?

So now, let's give you a fair share of knowledge in stalking someone using Google Images. If you know a person just by face and you don't have any good photo, you cannot use these tips.

In my case, I am browsing 9gag when an advertisement of a dating app appeared between images. Like this:


I ignored this. Many times. I am not the usual someone who randomly stalks someone just to, you know, know their names. But this ad keeps on appearing on the site I am literally using everyday, so why not?

It intrigued me to look for the name of the guy in this advertisement. The third guy!

So first, I just use some possible random keywords in Google

*Holla is the name of the app, I literally went to Google Play to see it myself

Nothing happened. I failed seeing his face.

So, I tried adding some keywords like holla, app, mobile, guy, model, name.

But I still failed.

Then, I tried using Google Images.

I Google image the whole advertisement. Who knows when Holla website (if there is) appears and they put the names of their models. 

But it gave a far different result.



What will I do with random selfies?

Then, I came up with the idea of cropping the picture. Wise, right?




The brighter side: I got another angle of the same picture!

The darker side: Still no name or any information, just two pictures (what I thought) of him and the worst is, all the websites are in Chinese!

Well, at least there is an improvement on my stalking, isn't it?

I jumped into Google results page. But all what's written is in Chinese.


I am not being racist here but, he doesn't look Chinese for me at all! Why are the results like this?

I saved the original image for a clearer and better picture and repeated the steps.


The results were still in Chinese.

I decided to just jump from one page to next and randomly clicked on titles with guy names or sites with model names.


Until, I saw this!


Martin Conte.

So, I opened the first link with his name in it and...


My hardship finally paid off!

I went to Google Images results as well as his Instagram account.

And the pictures confirmed it!



You may follow him on Instagram at @martinconte

For those who'll say why didn't I ask to any forum (i.e Yahoo! Answers) together with his picture, I would say I can't because I never did that. And sometimes I think it takes forever to wait for an answer so why don't you find it yourself? And of course, I tried Google Images if this really works for stalking. Okay?

PS:

I don't follow him on Instagram. I just want to know his name. But not what he does for work, or his personality, if he has a girlfriend or where he lives. I am just curious about his name.
