This week’s Mac Treat is short and sweet, but a great one that I stumbled across on one of my favorite blogs, Apartment Therapy (in my fantasies, I moonlight as an interior designer).
I found that I would often search Pinterest for design inspiration, and thought it would be nice to find items that were similar by doing a Google search. However, many times, the result wouldn’t really yield what I was looking for. Additionally, I’d also come across images on Pinterest itself that I’d want to repin, but find the original source wasn’t credited. Here are two tips that will help:
- If you want to find the source of an image, drag it to the Google search box and it will find the original source.
- By using a feature called “visually similar images,” Google will narrow the search results to what matches the photo.
Don’t be afraid to let Google autofill your search criteria, either. Check out the original article to find out more, and try it for yourself.
