Water colorsWhat color is happiness? What about the French Revolution, birth, and liberty? There’s a new search based tool that can tell you these answers.

How does it work?

Here’s some info from Instant Color Schemes:

We take 5 related images from Yahoo Image Search and then show the most prominent 6 colors from each image. Each column of colors is taken from a single image.

This is a fun example of using BOSS for more than a standard search application. You can easily take this idea and develop a module for blogs or other sites.

The Future of Vertical Search Engines
View more presentations from 7mary4.

I gave a presentation at the recent www2009 conference in Madrid about the Future of Vertical Search Engines. It was a great event and I enjoyed watching researchers and developers from across the world informally discuss ideas and collaborations.

The Yahoo! Developer Network just published my blog post: The Future of Vertical Search Engines. The blog post includes much more information that is hard to describe in a simple set of PowerPoint slides.

I hope you find the information helpful. Join the conversation on the YDN blog.
