Colloids are suspensions of small solid particles in a liquid and exhibit glassy behavior when the particle concentration is high. In these samples, the particles are roughly analogous to individual molecules in a traditional glass. This model system has been used to study the glass transition since the 1980s. In this Viewpoint I summarize some of the intriguing behaviors of the glass transition in colloids and discuss open questions.
