It revealed the site today at its annual Build developers conference in San Francisco.
 
'We wanted to create an experience that was intelligent and fun could capture the attention of people globally, so we looked at the APIs available in the Azure Machine Learning Gallery,' it said. 
 
The system works by analysing 27 points on the face.
