Blackie's Google Power Saves Energy

Read "A Search Engine Wears Black and Thinks Green" in today's Washington Post for more details on Blackie.

"A blogger from Boston mixed some science with some math earlier this year and came up with a theory that a black background on the main Google search engine page could save 3,000 megawatt-hours every year, assuming Google gets 200 million queries a day and its page is displayed for 10 seconds per visit. An Australian company called Heap Media bought into the idea and developed a black-back Google search page, called Blackle."
