OH do I have a treat for you.  I met a gal a few years ago who works for Pantone as a color scientist.  Her blog, www.ellenalexandra.blogspot.com lead me to  http://www.colourlovers.com/lover/2sheepinthecity/lovers which is the biggest, most fun and creative time waster I have ever discovered, even worse than Ravelry.  I’m ruined.  The link goes to my profile page, but you can make your own.
