Have you tried this new app from Microsoft? It tries to guess how old you are


Wrong. I'm 40. 41 in June.

The site (http://how-old.net/) claims if it didn't get it right, they are working to improve the feature.

Now I know why I get carded at the LCBO. Every damn time.

A blog from a woman about how old she looks? I can hear every male reader running a mile from the comment box... ;)

(For the record CJ I would have guessed 33 :) )

I'm a confident person. If you told me I looked my age I'd be truly okay with that. I swear!

And I agree. I look more like I'm in my early 30s and not fresh out of high school.

I tried it and told me 31. What a boost to my ego!

The poor algorithm doesn't stand a chance against all those women who will claim the algorithm over-estimated their age because they're only "29" (and have been for the past 10 years)

Lucky you! It told me I was 60. And a man. I'm 41. And a woman. Sigh.

i think my phone takes selfie shots wrong or uploads wrong , but i happened to upload the only "selfie" photo i had, which was me in front of a target sign , it got my age more or less but because the photo uploaded sideways, it "targeted" (pun intended) on the target bullseye..... and said 31......i laughed at that.... way off "target" microsoft.....
