Addictive Google Image Labeler Game or More Ways to Waste Time Online

Stumbled upon this great little "game" at Google. You play against someone else online of Googles choosing - you don't select who you play against. You get shown a picture and have a time limit in which to type words or tags to describe the image. If you and the other person type the same tag (you can type loads until you match) then you get shown the next picture and your score is increased. That's it. Oh and you can either play as a guest or set a name. Here's the url. http://images.google.com/imagelabeler/ Of course google are evil yadda yadda. The reason for this game is allegedly so that Google can better categorise the pictures in their search engine. That way when you search for pictures of a tree you get pictures of trees and not something else you weren't expecting.
