A post about colors -- that has nothing to do with Crayola!

This is just one of the coolest online toys I've ever seen. You pick a color, and it finds photos shared on Flickr that approximate that color. I bet there are some actual uses such an applet could be put to, but honestly, it's really fun to just pick a color and see what pops up. (If you want to see larger versions of any of the photos, clicking on them will take you to the appropriate Flickr page.) Scroll down for variations on the theme which will give you different image results.

It certainly does seem to have the effect the creator desired: 'to provide wonder and delight.'
