How do I load images from URLs into tensorflow?

I'm currently running this:

image = urllib.urlopen(imgUrl)
pool3_features = sess.run(pool3,{'incept/DecodeJpeg/contents:0': image})

and I get this error:

Unable to get element from the feed as bytes.

The solution was quite simple... All I had to do was call the read method on response from urlopen. The following works like a charm:

image = urllib.urlopen(imgUrl)
pool3_features = sess.run(pool3,{'incept/DecodeJpeg/contents:0': image.read()})

Just use a method to load it into NumPy and then load that into TensorFlow. This is likely more reliable, more flexible.
