Thumbs up BlackGoogle.com

I ran across this article while browsing. Just thougth I'd share it:

A few months ago, TreeHugger Mark Ontkush wrote a post on his blog EcoIron titled Black Google Would Save 750 Megawatt-hours a Year. The post lays out the following train of thought. “An all white web page uses about 74 watts to display, while an all black page uses only 59 watts.” Google, which has a white background and 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. (For more detailed calculations and assumptions check out the original post here.)

Results: BlackGoogle.com

I like it. I think it looks great. But I'm a big fan of Google anyway.Black or White.
