I may have missed earlier posts, but Google has created a game so we can help it label images. Once you get the hang of it, it's quite addictive.

There's a Google Tech Talk about this game on Google Video (as opposed to YouTube) that discusses how Google uses the game in some detail. I think that many of the principles of identification involved are being used by Google in lots of areas... in everything from Google Co-Op and Custom Search Engines to Google's assessment of link anchor text....

...which explains why their Image Search feature is so in-line with reality and produces such great and relevant results.
