Google and Save (the World)
Google to your heart's content and help save the environment.
http://blackle.com claims to have saved 5,673.688 Watt hours so far by switching Google search to a black background.
The premise is “An all white web page uses about 74 watts to display, while an all black page uses only 59 watts.” Google, which gets about “200 million queries a day”, could reduce global energy use by 750 Megawatt-hours a year by simply changing the color of its homepage to black.
