PICAXE 08m Tricolor LED flasher
I was in Radio Shack today and saw a three-color 5mm LED. It doesn't say, but it's common anode. (I guess the two flat sides are a clue.) Here's a Picaxe 08m LED flasher program for it.

Uses Radio Shack 276-0028 5mm common-anode RGB LED
Use 3 1.5V batteries for supply
Hook LED long lead to V+
Hook Other pins to DIP pins 3, 4, and 5 each through a 330 ohm resistor.

Here's an application for the tricolor LED and Picaxe 08m, from Inkless Press.
