BLACKLE.COM

If you're a frequent user of google.com for you internet searches, you should really consider using blackle.com instead. Why? Cause it uses a black display screen as opposed to a white one. And what does that mean? It's not only cooler looking cause its black, but it also saves more energy.

As I was just recently made aware of, a white display screen uses significantly more energy than a black display screen. Apparently, the ratio is about 74 watts for white to 59 watts for black, according to this guy who calculated that a black display screen google would save 750 Megawatt-hours a year. Yikes!

Kudos to whoever came up with the idea, cause it's a pretty clever and switched on one. And a black display screen is so much more sleek looking than a white one. Double bonus!
