Great idea! The trick is to zoom into peoples clothing, and then the associated event becomes quite obvious. Eg. Photo of Disco, no crazy lapels, obviously towards the end of disco, which puts you within a year or two.

Might have gotten lucky but zooming in on clothing got me to 1.8 years off on average (top 2%).

Pinch to zoom didn't work for me on Firefox for Android, and neither did double tapping.

Long press the picture, open image in new tab. Then you can zoom.
