I suppose I have too much time on my hands today, but I've always been amazed at the popularity of Internet social networking communities that solely provide a way for members to share discrete formulations, such Colourlovers.com and Kuler.com, which allow users to create and share color palettes, some of which are excellent. Visitors or members can then use these color palettes to create interior decors or graphic design color palettes for magazine covers and so on.

It seems to me that an interesting idea would be to have an Internet social network around sharing essential oil mixes, for room sprays, cleaning sprays, or other essential oil-based formulations. I'd be interested in hearing whether others think this kind of site could work?

On Colourlovers and Kuler.com, for instance, some of the color palletes are derived from photographs of the natural surroundings outdoors by extracting the natural colors in the photograph. Likewise, an essential oil-based network could allow users to share oils that they've created or derived themselves.
