Not to knock the photos, but this only reminds me of this TED talk on internet filter bubbles, and how much google increasingly annoys me with them:  http://blog.ted.com/2011/05/02/beware-online-filter-bubbles-eli-pariser-on-ted-com/

I believe those are a result of personalized search results due to Google Plus...Not that Pete isn't on his way to the top ;)

Crap! I need to add "iPhone 5 Compatible" to those photos!

The Internet Bubble Dustin mentioned helped... but so does publishing
over 80,000 photos on the Internet. :)

Matt,

Google has a new algorithm where it will return relevant image
searches from people you have in your address book or Google+ etc at
the top of your searches. You can tell because the images were tagged
with Pete's name at the bottom there. I have seen this for a month or
two now.

The Pete image returns are expected, but what is with the  Henri 2, Paw de Deux video?

WTF!

It's like I'm being stalked or something.

Should I phone the authorities?

Maybe I have a virus.

Duck Duck Go,  Just like Google it will quack you up.

Duck Duck Go is the default search engine in several distros.  They kickback to those distros which helps the distros cover expenses.

LOL, I think that photo deserves some closer inspection.
