I stumbled across this web site, and was entranced by it. It's for colour (their spelling, not mine) lovers, and that's about all I can say about it because you have to see it to appreciate it. The most recent blog post on the site is an article and a way-cool graphic about the colors used in popular web sites. Reds and blues are big, and that's expected, I suppose, but blue out-ranks red. And as I think about it, there's something about blue and a computer screen go well together.
For instance, I've tried lots of different "wallpaper" for my computer monitors, but inevitably I end up with something with a lot of blue in it. And, then green. But whenever I've used a background with a lot of red in it, it tends to not last long before I change it back to something blue.
To see the graphic and not have to go through the site to get to it, use this link. But do yourself a favor and click on the graphic to see it large. It's very well done, showing the top 100 web "brands" and the colors associated with them. Really interesting.
