Is there any tool to search internet by image, instead of by descriptions of the image?

I think reverse Google image search uses the actual image to find similar images on the Internet. Simply drag and drop the image onto the search box/field/whatever.
The truth is absolute. Life forms are specks of specks (...) of specks of dust in the universe.
Why settle for normal, when you can be so much more? Why settle for something, when you can have everything?

Is that the same site as Image.google.com?

I can't seem to drag and drop image into the search box.

Not that I'm aware of. Here's the URL https://www.google.com/imghp
I just tested it with an image I created (a screenshot of a chart), and, although it didn't find any charts similar enough to give me those as possible matches, it did give me other charts as "similar results".

Hmm, it is not letting me either drag and drop, or copy and paste any image into the search box.

They do this on the show "catfish", not sure what they use though.

Reverse google image works.

1. Right click on the image you'd like to search and choose copy image location

2. Paste the location into the google search box and choose images.

3. Click on the camera icon in the search box. Ta Da.

You can also use: https://www.tineye.com/ though they aren't as comprehensive as google.

I'll say it does. I found Jenny A's "Fine Art America" Portfolio (Nice art!) by using her User Image in the search box.
