Google Related Image Search. The ever-creative Philipp Lenssen has developed a
new tool that looks for related images. It is a small PHP5 script that is "first
screenscraping Google Sets, and then it's screenscraping Google Images (once per
term found in the set, which is why this takes some seconds)." I have to say it is mostly a novelty at this point, but the
results are interesting and could potentially be useful. Here are the results for the
query [solar system, milky way]:

Notice that you can search for up to two terms separated by a comma. That means
that you can search for [solar system, milky way] but a search for three single terms,
e.g., [mercury, pluto, mars] may return strange results at this time. In any event, this
is an interesting and unique tool, so if you need to search for related images, this is
the place to start.
