I love this article about the story of CSS leader Eric Meyer, who lost his daughter to brain cancer, and the web community that came together to create an amazing memorial that exists in every browser today.
TLDR
Neat fact everybody...
Amazon Echo devices uses the CSS standards for color names.. you can tell your hue lights to set a room to rebeccapurple.
I'm not crying, you're crying!
I use this color all the time, and it still makes my eyes water whenever I think about it.
