Google quitely released a new feature called "Name Tags".
Go to My Photos in Picasaweb. Click a link called "Name tags" on the right side and let Google do the photo crunching for you. It is so cool that it processes your pictures while you navigate away from that page. To check the status, you go back to the website and it will show you status.
Once it is done processing, you click on "Add name tags" to start tagging people in your pictures.
I have quite a few pictures in my photo album and some of them are quite complicated with people positioned at various points in the pictures. So far Google didn't pick anything in pictures that is not a person's face. It identified and grouped people correctly (see picture). It even has suggestions for people (based on your previous selections).
Overall, I highly recommend this feature. I wish Windows has a similar feature that works as good as this.

Google should released a similar feature that will grep your emails to display specific pictures and then optionally export them anywhere you prefer. I don't enjoy being locked into Picasa.
