Word Color

Word color calculates the color of a word by using image search. Enter a word in the box on the side and the control does an image search at google. It also sends back the urls of the thumbnails to the server. The server then goes out, fetches the images and counts the colors of the pixels. The result is the average color of that word.

So, money is green, sea is blue and roses are red.

This shouldn't surprise anybody, but even though I have a couple of Google Projects and I work for Google, everything that happens here is just me. Nothing to do with Google the company.
