Reminds me of TinEye's multicolr demo [0] that searches through CC-licensed images on Flickr. Their multiple color feature was really nice (however they don't have shuttershock's keyword filtering.)

I wonder if anyone ever bought TinEye's color-search-engine-as-a-service [1]. The as-a-service model seems really awkward for something that requires so much integration, and this new shuttershock feature (developed from the ground up) seems to confirm this.

I'm really interested in that question too, did anyone buy TinEye's color search service? I hope so.

Personally, I think the TinEye color results are better than Shutterstock's approach....although having meta-data alongside is definitely a must.
