Did you know about the blackle? It is the google with black background. It is claimed that it's more environment-friendly because it uses less power (which is needed for white-light monitor background compared to black background). If millions of computer users would choose Blackle instead of Google, a major cutting down on emissions would occur.
At least, so the story goes. Yet, there is a dispute about how much blackle is actually saving compared to google. More evidence of blackle's supposed advantage are yet to be seen, some say. Check the above "dispute" blog link for some more info.
But of course, check it out first hand: BLACKLE!

...I have changed to blackle google search - it's black :), it's dark :), it saves energy.
Yes, it doesn't look really bright and shining, does it? :)
I had heard of blackle.com (the eco friendly version of google), but now they have launched blackle games i dunno if any energy is saved, but atleast it doesnt hurt the eye, lol
Wow, that blackle games is really something! Must be pretty dark themes though :)
