Microsoft Face Cognative Service

Has anyone tried to used this to identify a persons name yet? This would finish off the group of Plugins quite nicely. A robot who knows your name, and can tell if you are happy about it. I do not have the skills to investigate this idea, but I think it would be cool. Ron
