Triplecode's flash based Munsell Palette Color Picker is a very neat solution to the color picking question. The closer a color picking system is to being natural or intuitive, the more sucessful. I'm also liking the 3 panel interface.

The Munsell system is different because it is based on how people perceive colors. At its core is a set of data from perceptual studies (done in the late 1930's) where people were asked to judge the differences in color pairs. The result is a data set which defines a perceptually uniform color space.

Note that it's in beta form, and has a small list of known issues. (no more critical posts from me for a while).
