Twitpic launched a new functionality this week – you can tag people in your photos! Face Tagging works just like tagging pics in Facebook. When you’re in your Twitpic, you click the “In this photo:” link, pinpoint someone’s face, and then enter their name and Twitter handle.

Of course, a person can choose to untag their picture (if it’s not super flattering of course). And you can include everyone pictured in a tweet automatically, or yourself at a later point. How do you know if you’ve been tagged? The only way you can tell (right now) is if you are listed in the tweet.

Will you be using this functionality? Is it useful or just fun?
