When a free web service called WolframAlpha launches in the coming days, the general public will get to try a "computational knowledge engine" that has had technology insiders buzzing because of its oracle-like ability to spit out answers and make calculations.

A fun way to search for reference images by their colour content. It selects from over 10 million images on Flickr according to the colours you select from a handy little palette. Then of course you can link directly to any picture you see. It doesn't give you any rights to use the images you ... read more

Social bookmarking, but for images. A useful source of inspiration for anyone working in the visual arts. Members can post images straight to the site via clever little bookmarklets. Sort of like a Google image search, whereby you browse to a page because of the images within it. Perhaps i'm over... read more

What shape is the dot above the lowercase i? And it eventually narrows down to a set of potential a... read more

A fun little bit of flash which helps you to discover new music. Simply enter the name of an artist you like and it'll give you a 'map' of similar artists. I don't know how rigourous the underlying data is and the design is a bit bargain basement. But its got something which makes it really r... read more
