Wow, have fun with retrievr. It has a small drawing area (I wonder why not making a big one?) let you draw something with your mouse. Whatever you draw, it would pull something similar from Flickr. The application is developed with flash. The immediate auto-search function is disabled temporary due to the high traffic (probably have been digged or slashdotted), you have to click the not-so-easily-noticed “retrievr search” button, just beneath the drawing area.

Although didn’t know what economic effect it could drive to, not sure what’s the algorithm it used to capture the similarity, it sure is fun to play with. Well, the display images being related or non-related is subjective, but that’s the fun.
