This one is a &#8216;facial recognition&#8217; application where you can pre-configure the results to prank your friends. I tried this on a bunch of buddies this weekend, and had the app return &#8216;Beetlejuice&#8217; from the Howard Stern show for one of them&#8230;got a ton of laughs out of that one!!!</p>
<p>________________________________________________________________</p>
<p>Prank your friends with <a href="http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=320931549&amp;mt=8">LookAlike</a>! The &#8216;facial recognition&#8217; application that allows you to make your friends &#8216;Look Like&#8217; anyone!</p>
<p>LookAlike is a great way to play a Prank on your friends and get a bunch of laughs in the process. You can take their picture with the iPhone, and LookAlike will pretend to &#8216;process&#8217; their facial features, looking for a matching person that they look like&#8230;The trick is that you are allowed to configure what the resulting match will be before hand!</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s how the application works:</p>
<ol>
<li>Double-tapping any of the hidden buttons in the four corners of the screen will allow you to configure the resulting person for that corner.</li>
<li>Single-tapping any of the hidden corner buttons will &#8216;activate&#8217; that corner. The person configured in that corner will be the result of the next LookAlike analysis.</li>
<li>Take a picture and begin the analysis&#8230;</li>
<li>LookAlike will then take several seconds while it pretends to analyze the face of your friend, then it will indicate that your friend&#8217;s face matched to the person that you setup for that corner.</li>
<li>A few seconds later, LookAlike will show the image of that person from Google Images (which you can also configure by scrolling to the image you want to use)</li>
</ol>
<p>You can configure multiple corners, and prank multiple friends in a row for more realistic results! If you make a few of the results believable, and the last result absolutely ridiculous, your friends will be rolling on the floor laughing!</p>
<p>I have tried this on many of my friends, and I have had them all laughing hysterically at the results. Try it today!</p>
