It’s been around since 2011. I think it was one of the earliest examples of “infinite zooming” tiled image websites. (See https://ghostarchive.org/archive/Igdyv )

#45The mobile app used to have a feature where you could upload a selfie and it would search for a painting that looked like you. It did a really good job. Not sure if you can do that on the website.

Still, I think my reply does demonstrate - there is nothing technically stopping Google from adding this feature to the web version, if they felt sufficiently motivated to do so

There is lots of other cool stuff like a Santa Tracker: https://santatracker.google.com/
I initially went through google subdomain lists on github, but many of them just redirected to the main search engine.
With how many things Google has killed, its hard to remember how many are still alive.
And thanks for sharing Internet Places DB.
