What’s your color? Is it #3A68A7? That’s a really Geeky hex color! I’m not asking your favorite color. My favorite color happens to be red. It’s a good, strong color! However, what I’m asking for is what your color is, as defined by your first and last name – and your birthdate! If you don’t know, you can easily find out over on Colourism.

Simply put in your first and last name, and then add your birthday. Click the “Tell me my Colour!” button. You will then receive your color. Mine happens to be a brick red color! How astute of the site. My companion color is a shade of blue that’s pretty cool looking.

You can print your color onto things like a mug or mousepad. You can also check out a list of other users, and their color combinations.

Kat is quite happy with her color. Think Mike is going to let her paint their living room that color? I’m not sure about that, but I do know that this service is a great way to personalize your life according to YOUR color!

What is your color? Leave us the hex code for it as a response to this video so we can all compare.

When you see and hear the testing for the Emergency Broadcasting System on tv, how do you know those colors are really the right colors? Maybe your tv or monitor isn’t displaying them correctly. How do you test your monitor screen? You want the colors to be as true-to-life as possible, right? Why not run a series of tests to check your monitor?

You can check your colors, gradience and many other things with these free tests. This will allow you to truly get the most of the colors available to you, and make sure that you have the highest quality possible.

It’s simple to use, and will help you tweak your screen with ease. I’m sure you know of other utilities we can make use of, so I hope you’ll pass them along to us!
