Retrievr

retreivr lets you query Flickr's image database by drawing a rudimentary sketch of what you're looking for. I had good luck drawing simple things like an apple, but when I tried to draw my dream girl it kept on giving me a giraffe. Maybe that's saying something.

I have my own Flickr-powered project launching next week. It's super-secret so I can't link to it yet but I think it turned out pretty well. It doesn't involve and fast multiresolution color searching but it works nonetheless. Stay tuned.
