This is an interesting idea. Still early days, but I do see some potential here.

Jump to the site and type in a word or phrase. Picular will return with a palette of colors, each with the specific hex code of that color.

If you click on the color’s hex code, that code will be copied to the clipboard. If you hover over the image mini-icon (bottom right corner of a color), you’ll see the image from which that color was picked.

The results are uneven. For example, type grape and you’ll see see an orange color that was clearly not from the grapes in the image, but from a stem in the background.

But that aside, I do see some upside here. Very interesting idea.
